Interview rough done!! (Patreon)

In case the embed doesn't work, here's a link!

This cut doesn't have the little intro sketch where Nick walks in and tells me to get out of his basement. Some other unfinished aspects-

-The audio filter I used made Nick sound great but I sound warbly (can fix later).

-Needs a lot of color and audio correction generally. The inserted clips are still a lot louder than the interview.

-The middle third or so needs to be tightened up and to have clips added.

-There are a lot of jump cuts that my friend Sarah pointed out are jarring so I'm going to at least attempt to smooth some of those since I have three cameras to work with.

BUT I've made a lot of progress on it and am so excited to share it. I may go out of town tomorrow and wanted to get a rough up ASAP.

I think it turned out very well and had some fun surprises. I am also trying to give myself grace for all the fidgeting I do and how many filler words I use ("like" "um" etc). For segments I'm actually using in the final video essay I can be meticulous enough to cut all that which is a comfort.

Thanks again to everyone who has stuck around through monthly billing. I couldn't have shot this interview without that support, not to mention the time it's taking to edit. I really appreciate it.
