Editing

After looking at our final day of filming, we can see that what we have is enough to have a real go at editing. My personal favourite parts are our ending shots, which we have a variety of. Not only that, but they are particularly strong and interesting. We decided to make the section more intense with closer shots and maybe some softer lighting. This would go with the music, which drops pace significantly, and this needs to be reflected in the editing. A good idea was also be cross fades and fades to black, which would slow the pace of editing more than simple cuts.

For the editing, we need to work together more than ever before. Everybody needs to take up their own workload of the editing in order to get it done, because time is still an issue. Admittedly, not everyone would be as good as others in their editing skill, but as long as everyone makes an effort it should be fine.

To make sure we get it done, we have donated time outside or media lessons to work on the video. We have all used study periods and after school sessions to edit, and this has helped us greatly. It means we have been able to get a lot more done in a shorter period of time. Pictures of our progress will be uploaded shortly.
