Editing tree footage

Spent the morning in the editing suite at Circus Street. I used visual cues to edit the footage I took of the birch tree at the Level. I tried to establish the film by showing the shot of a discarded plastic container on the ground behind the tree followed by shots I took of the entrance to the park where Heras fencing bars the way. The park is closed to the public for refurbishment. Other shots slowly bring us to the tree and the decorations hung on it. Boards stating “SAVE CAISIE’S TREE” and “WHY FIX WHAT’S NOT BROKEN?” stand in front of the tree. I followed a pattern of what worked visually for me – shots I liked.
