Editing: The First Phase In Re-editing

          Hey world, it's Aniyah! In my previous blogs I explained how there's a current outbreak of a newly discovered virus. I also explained the precautions they are taking because of this. Because we are currently limited to go places it has been difficult for my group and I to do the re-shoots. It was already a difficulty before these events happened because of how far away we live from each other. Now it's an even bigger issue. We have just decided to communicate through text and call to get some work done. During the break we have just focused on editing. Instead of Pinnacle Studios we continue to use iMovie through a MacBook. We are more familiar with iMovie which is why we continue to use it.

          First, we completed the first part of editing which dumping all the footage from the SD card into the computer. Then, we looked through all the shots we took and looked to see which shots would be best to use for the film. We cut all the shots we did not use and put the shots we did use in order. Than we started on the transitions and editing techniques. We put in all the fade outs, fade ins, and more into the film. Once we completed that we looked through the whole film again to make sure there was no choppiness in between scenes. We enjoyed trying different techniques because we believe it made it more interesting and kept the audience engaged. We also made sure each shot, movement, and techniques was in order so that it would match with the scenes. We could only get so much done in so little time. In future blogs I will continue to inform you on my journey. Thanks for reading and blog you later!
