Editing Blog: Making Progress

With the first twelve scenes being finished, my group decided to work on the rest of the scenes next. This would take my group a while to complete because there were eighteen scenes left to be edited in. However, because all the clips I needed were moved into one area I didn't have much of a problem with finding them. Since I was using iMovie, I did the main editing parts while my group members was with me to discuss each members opinions on the editing choices. This was because I couldn't exactly share the files in a way that would allow my group to work on it while I was. Unfortunately, this meant I couldn't save much time. Though, the end result this way would be better since my group could still work on it together, except I was the one using the physical software. My group discussed aspects to the editing like filters, sound effects, and voice overs. These things were important because if they were agreed upon, they could increase the quality of the film. For now my group has decided that there will be no filters on the park scenes, but it is possible that one will be used for the base scenes. By using a filter for the base scenes I can make the clips darker and give a more sci-fi effect then how it would normally look. Other than that, I probably won't use any sound effects but I can't be sure until I see how the final clips will go with soundtrack. Another thing my group discussed was the scene lengths. This process is not difficult but has a lot of back and forth. Each of the eighteen scenes had to be adjusted based off the storyboard and script. It also took a bit of trial and error to get clips with continuous dialogue to flow smoothly. This is because iMovie automatically puts a basic transition between clips. Due to this there was a lot of removing and lining up I had to do as well as playing the scenes to make sure it sounds proper. After finishing up the scenes my group discussed the possibilities there were for sound tracks. My group decided the next thing to do is the soundtrack and lining it up. Once this is one I will be completely done with editing.
