editing of our prelim

We have been learning how to use editing in a proper way. The things we learnt were how to check in and out in final cut server and final cut pro. We had some fun during editing and matching the shoots with each other. We did some silly mistakes which ended really funny, so beside the editing work we also had some fun.There was a part in the time line of the clip where we muted the sound while one of our actors was talking, because we wanted to insert some music instead of silence. We searched for some music, but it went too complicated so we decided to find some music from the computer we were working from. We found a folder containing different sounds, we wanted to find one which would match the feeling which our actor had during the close up of her face. There were some really funny sounds, we laughed a lot.

The hard process was basically learning how to work with the final cut pro in the beginning.  It seemed quit complicated at first how to match the right shots with each other to make a sequence of our clip. We were  link selecting different shots a lot of times to make sure they match each other. We also had some difficulties with edditing and cutting sounds. We did a lot of extra shots which basically were really usefull because we could grab some useful moments from the extra shots and edit them to our clip.

If i had to do it again i think i would make more shots so we could have some more usefull moments to edit to our actuall clip. I would also make actors talk louder, because one of the actors was talking quit and noices within the room were covering hos voice. I didnt really like the place where we had to film our actors, if i had to do it again i would change the place. I didnt use computer much, but i was helping with ideas which shots matches, what and when we should use in terms of matching shots and also i worked with sound for the whole time.=
