editing

I've been falling down on the blogging job lately and I appologize! lately all I have been doing is going down to the studio to edit stuff. I think I've done this about 4 times now, I did some subclipping the first day, then started working on the footage of the little kids, and they are still as funny as they were when we filmed them! I can't help but crack up the entire time I'm doing them. last Friday I got to edit some audio files of 911 calls, and those were technically a little easier to do, but were probably some of the hardest things I've ever had to hear. It's like I could picture those little kids in my head, and all I could think of is that one of those little six-year-olds could be my little nephew Tate, because they are the same age, and I couldn't imagine any kid having to go through that at that age. Parents are supposed to be the one thing in a kids life that they can count on and trust to take care of them, and for that to be taken away from these kids is heartbreaking. I feel like since I have been helping with this project my eyes have been opened so much as to what can (and unfortunately does) happen in the world. I'm beginning to realize how important a project like this is, because it is dealing with some of those aspects in life that most of us don't have to deal with directly on a daily basis. we go on, living charmed lives most of the time, and there are people out there who's good day's are still worse than our bad days, and they have to live like that, day in and day out, and most of us don't even take the time to look on the other side of the fence to see it.
