When it came to the editing stage my first problem was the software I had to edit on which was Premiere, even though it was similar to Final Cut I still had to take a day or two to get the hang of things.
After having uploaded my clips and get everything cut and into a rough order I match the clips to the song I had chosen and was very happy with the results. I feel this adds a lot to the piece as the music gives off a mood and engages people a lot to the story being told.
I had planned to add in titles between a few clips to give more details of the whole concept and I wanted to add in some facts to really make it hit the audience as statistics seem to make people believe more in what their watching.
I also added in some photos of the three interviewees to show that we are a family and that it was a personal piece which I think added a little bit more to it as you see us in our daily life and shows we all like everyone else.
I think at the end of it all, yes it was a personal piece but I wanted people to see that even if its not eczema, people who have any sort of illness/ condition isn't really different from everyone else. They aren't some form of alien that we should avoid or make fun off or even laugh and talk about. They are human beings with the same feelings, hopes and dreams as everyone else. They may need a little bit more extra care and attention but its not something that they have a decision on.
