Let the editing begin...

Us filming our first lucky volunteer!

Yesterday we spent much of the day getting the footage that we will be using in our final video (which is getting ever nearer). It was a good day with lots of enthusiastic volunteers and not too many problems bar the weather but, you can't have it all.

Getting the footage back today the main problem that we have encountered is how much footage we've managed to capture (much more than we ever had for the test footage). In a way it is a wonderful problem to have but a difficult one all the same.

After lots of advice from the professionals, including Don Henson (PHD student at the University of York) and Tara-Jane Sutcliffe (Council of British Archaeology), we have been given a few ideas to consider how to put together all the shots. So, our task now is to discover which ideas work well and achieve our main goal for our video; to make the archaeologists seem human...

One of our favourites!
