Throughout this period, we edited the documentary, choosing to follow the running order as closely as possible. However, this was not always possible, as we had other footage to replace it. Dissappointingly, we were also not able to produce the Fonejacker style sequence we had hoped to make for the opening of our documentary.
Instead of this, we used a montage of shots of takeaway signs, set to the Fast Food Song by the Fast Food Rockers; a song from the early 2000's. I feel that in the end, this was much more effective anyway, and would interest the audience just as well.
Editing was difficult throughout this 3 week period; we had to compromize on shots and choose what would be best and most interesting for our target audience. Music was a factor; what music is appropriate when creating a documentary on fast food? Archive footage held a similar problem; how could we include archive footage which was unbiased to homecooking or to takeaways?
All in all, I feel that the editing was successful; fast paced editing, designed for our target audience.
