Editing session #1

Yesterday my partner an I got to edit bits of ouur film. I found thsi really exciting because it allowed me to discuss with my partner which bits we need or we dont need and how we can make pur film flow accordingly. We had to connect the camera to the computer in order for it to read it. The Software that we used for filming is called Adobe Premier. Once we used the computer to upload the filming that we did from the camera the first step was to place them in order. For some reason the film was not in order even though we shooted the first scene first and the second scene second. The second thing that my partner and I did was to take out the bits of film that w did not need or the bits that would make the film seem longer than it should be. This part was a bit tricky for us because there were a few bits that that we did not need from the film but it was a second of the film that we did not need. We struggled on that bit untill our teacher showed us a very easy way to get rid of it. There were headphones for me to put on to listen to the dialogue. During the process of listening to the dialogue I heard some strange noises that the camera was picking up. I was not sure what it was. I thought that it had something to d with the actual camera never the less I took that bit out so that there would be no strange noises during the film.

In conclusion I thought that so far the editing went very smoothly considering how my teachers were sayin how tough editing was going to be. We managed to get our flim in order and also maged to cut out most of the bits that we do not need. We need to improve on the flow of the film because the cuts on it is to instant and sharp and this is causing the film not to flow properly but that can easily be fixed.
