I’ve had another phonecall from Sarah not long after I finished my project – she doesn’t want to be involved at all now.
I got her to sign a release form but as it’s such a sensitive subject, I am going to respect her wishes.
I can’t have the documentary with only the one interview so i’ve done a quick edit adding in “Jane’s Story.” As both Jane and Sarah’s names were made up, I’m not going to edit any of the narration (also, because I can’t at such a late hour).
The new second interview isn’t as long as detail… or as good to be honest, as it’s recorded by an actress (and not the best!). I’ve had to change the voice to stick to continuality – Zoe’s interview was always the main interview in the documentary and the focus. But with a weaker second interview in the documentary, I think it brings the documentary quality down which is absolutely gutting to me at this late stage and I hope my mark isn’t effected too much.
I would do some screenshots of the change but i’m too stressed and in too much of a rush!
