Editing

Directly after filming was finished, we began editing the film. Even though we identified the faults in the footage from the first filming day and needed to refilm, we edited as much as we possibly could from the good footage. We firstly sorted through all of the footage and deleted all of the footage we definitely weren't using to ensure that we didn't get mixed up with shots. We then sorted through the script and shot list to see the order in which we would place our shots. This was fairly easy as we initially followed the planned shot list and then decided to play about with the order of some shots to see what parts fitted better and what transitioned well into each other.

Initially, we just wanted to get a grips of the general plan of the film, and get all of the shots into order and then we could deal with sound and brightness at a later stage. Once we had a general layout to the film, we started playing about with the audio of the shots and moving it around so that we could allow shots change whilst the audio still played. 

Once we had also gotten the footage from refilming, this was all much easier because we could complete our storyline and begin focusing on how to make the editing better. At the moment, we're currently trying to adjust the audios and adjust the brightness of the shots to make sure that the shots are flowing well and look good together.
