Editing Log Post - 22/11



Today we started the long process of editing our video. We concluded that there was already a lot of footage that needed to be arranged before even considering to shoot anymore. This was not foreseen, as  we originally planned to include a small amount of other shots within our storyboard. Although we did not completely stick to it, there was a vast amount of shots we took that were not planned and came out exceptionally well.

The software we are using is the latest version of Adobe Premier Pro CS6. This was new software to all members of our group, as we were all familiar with using Final Cut Express last year. I personally prefer Premiere Pro a lot more, as is it is quicker, more user-friendly and you do not have to render each time you want to preview your work.

The first step in our post-production process was to gather all performance shots of me lip-syncing either certain parts of the track or when I perform the entire song. We then assembled then to be perfectly in time with the song. This was a lengthy procedure as you had to trim, cut and place each clip  to the precise millisecond at where it needed to be. It was difficult to manoeuvre at first, but after about two hours and our computer crashing midway, the task had been done.
