Cutting it all, nothing is precious

sor_sc08_sh0130bI spent the day setting up scenes and storyboarding. I find myself cutting out some beautiful sections of music from the film as they would prolong scenes without adding value to them. This music will sound great on the accompanying music albums. It is scary to put these pieces together, because there are moments when it all feels terrible. That is normal. You just have to throw the pieces together, then refine, edit, smooth out transitions, swap out shots to help things flow better. I just keep chipping away at it until it is better and eventually, as it was during other stages of the film, it can become beautiful.Introspection is helpful, losing all confidence is less so. It must be time to sleep.
