Embedded Files
As a part of the 38th Fajr Music Festival project, We made three documentaries of Iranian pioneer musicians based on interviews mixed with photos, B-rolls, and stock footage.
Interviews
Photos
B-rolls
Stock Footage
As an editor, I was in close contact with the director, and we chose the soundtrack and the stock footage together. It was also a valuable experience in editing long-duration interviews, narrowing them to small chunks of talks in a short documentary!
You can watch these short documentaries below:
