The footage to gather
- The original access or planting problem
- One construction or planting step
- The completed route through the garden
Give each moment a little breathing room. Get close enough to show the detail, and keep the original clips handy.
Plan a footage-led story
Opening
Start with the clearest evidence in the supplied clips.
Middle
Ask Amira to select a short sequence around that evidence, keeping one must-use moment.
Ending
End with the viewer understanding what happened.
Review it for landscapers
Distinguish a newly planted garden from its expected mature appearance.
Ask yourself: Does the edit preserve the action and context you recorded?
Watch it as if you were seeing it for the first time. If something is unclear, try a different cut or add the missing shot.
