Editing part 1

I told you all bout the preliminary task we did on Friday so today Tuesday we were starting with the editing part of the shots.

So we learned that we save all of our files into something called a rush bin and this is where we keep all of our original files in case something would go wrong. So we look through the rush bin to decide what kinds of shots we needed and which ones that was useless which was a lot of fun. When you have chosen your different shots you want for the editing part you put them in a file called log bin if I don’t remind myself wrong. So then you move one taking you scenes/files from the log bin into the editing system.

The movie editing program we used where from apple and we also did all of our work on Mac. The program was a lot easier then I interrupted, I will try to describe how it looked like and also post a picture. We had two different screens one for viewing the original clip and one for watching the scenes we edited together so that you easier can see how the final result will be.

When we started using the files/scenes from the log bin we had to decide in which order we want the scenes to be and how we will cut them. Also when cutting together the different scenes it was important to also match the sound whit the image which wasn’t hard.. It was a lot of work and we did not get done during the one hour lesson.

We will continue editing this or next week so that our task will be a finished piece and of course I will update you.

All for now
