29. Editing (Panic Scene)

    Panic. Panicking Scene and panicking in general! 

    

    The panic scene was added after I completed the storyboard and after I had the entire film in my head. I gave it a general area on where it would most likely fit in, right before destroying the painting, though it didn't feel nor look nice (acting wise). Since I'm an artist, I generally get frustrated with my art and would quit. I wouldn't walk all around and angrily stomp around, I would just not touch it for a few days. I also felt that there would be way too many camera changes in such a short amount of time, for how I wanted to do it, making the viewer uncomfortable. Shots like standing up, showing me moving around (front and side view) and sitting back down, within ~10 or more second, it would be way too much. 

    The background wasn't nice to look at either. It was bare and at a diagonal, to remove the sun from the window out of the frame. Nothing about the clips felt that it should be in the film, and I removed it. 

    

    Another struggle was the bullying insert, flashback. Being completely honest, I forgot about it. Even if I were to add the flashback, I doubt it would fit nicely with the environment, nothing else is "animated" throughout the film. Furthermore, I wouldn't have figured a way out to make the flashback have a painted look to it, it would've ended up as fading squares.
