The Beginning of Editing

 Hello! We finally are almost done with our project. It's so relieving. We began our editing today. We began by downloading all of the videos and files onto my computer to sort through them all. There were many scenes we messed up in so we had to delete those and make sure we got the perfect scenes to put into our video. It was a lot of work because we had to reshoot so many scenes continuously because we could not keep it together while filming, we would start laughing or mess up our lines. We finally got all of the files downloaded into the iMovie app. We didn't do much editing like adding the wording and adding music, however we did get all of our clips in order. We cut the clips to be perfect length and added seamless transitioning to make the intro look more professional. As we were going through the clips we realized that we accidentally completely deleted one of our scenes so the next day we had to go reshoot it. The scene was in the stairwell chasing the antagonist of the story, we went to the hotel the next day and had to continue our shooting. All went according to plan so when we got back home we added the clip into our app and we had to add transitioning again. The entire process was so difficult due to the fact that we lost that footage. It took about four or five reshoots to finally get it how we wanted it. We needed to have different angles of us going down the stairs as well as the antagonist. At the end of the day, all went well and we got all of our scenes together. It was a very fun process to work with Ella on editing because we both got to express creative freedom. We love how our film has been looking so far and we cannot wait to finish most editing the next time we meet! We will see you in the next blog!
