The Hardest Part of the Filming Process

   So, now that we really are moving towards the end of our two minute movie project. We are now in the editing stage, in which to me, is the hardest part of the whole process. Being that Josh is so much more tech-savvy than Amelia and I. We decided to let him take over a good majority of the editing process. Looking back to our first project of the year (the commercial) Josh actually filmed and edited the entire short film and he did great, so we instilled our trust in him again. We are watching over him very keenly being we are the females of the group, everything we say still goes. LOL. In our movie opener we have decided to use a lot more editing tricks this time around, including things like: sound effects and etc.. While Josh hasn't been to school, he hasn't said much on the actual process which can be concerning. We just want to make sure our film is ready for peer editing next week.
  With all this being said, going back to some of the editing tools we want to touch base on. These things definitely include split screens, cross cutting, and a lot of fading.  I am super excited to see what this film will turn out to be. I really love the fact that we have a chance for peer review and then getting the opportunity to re-shoot and re-edit our videos before turning them in. Editing is hard for me because I do not know everything surround technology let along how to edit things into a program. We do have a set editing software available at school, Pinnacle Studios, but it never seems to work. For the last few projects we actually didn't use that software at all; we tried to dump our clips and it went super slow. In the past we have used, IMovie and Adobe Flash as editing software. But this time around we are taking a little bit of a different approach.
