The edit decision list allowed us to then pick certain material, that we had deemed worthy of using from the logging sheets, to use in our documentary. We had to carefully document what shot we were using and describe it. We then ensured it all fit together nicely and would produce a documentary that could be compared to professional media texts.
The EDL helped us greatly in staying on track when editing our documentary: however in the final production we made some minor changes, and strayed from the EDL slightly. This was because when we thought we had completed the documentary, we went back and looked through the logging sheets, to see if there was any more exciting footage in exchange for what we had chosen. We feel making the decision to change some of the original footage we chose was a good idea as our documentary fits together better as it is now.
