Impulse

We’re coming up on the one year anniversary of the start of the race. I think that’s as good an excuse as any to get finished on this movie. I’ve left it languishing while I worked on a startup. This month, I’m letting the startup go and will focus on editing until it’s done.

Since it’s been six months since I last looked at any of this, I’ve spent the last few days reviewing footage. This time, though, I’m being a little more exploratory about it - meandering from one clip to another instead of going through them in sequence. Meanwhile, I’m doing radio-style logs (See the This American Life comic book on the subject) including visual notes and representative stills from the video stream. I print these out, thus I can sift and edit very quickly on paper. Looks promising, but we’ll see how useful it ends up being.
