Editing - A Summary

Thus the arduous task of editing is complete. Even after our major game change in which i expressed earlier in my blog.

Above is the first screen shot that we have, this was taken before the game change in which we have all our old footage in. We only really worked on half this stuff on the 1st day of editing before my partner and I really decided to change a lot.

Next we have our new idea. With all the new stuff that we filmed put into action on Movie Maker. Non of it is in order. We added the music as one of the 1st things we did, so we could move things around it and make it fit accordingly. 

And finally here is the finished version. With everything in order and all of the transition shots and tones set into it. This is what our final piece will run off.

Whilst editing, I learnt a lot. Not to say i went in totally clueless, iv had some experience before, but never with anything this large. I understood the basics on how to move the scenes around and adjust the volume. That was about it. In my 3 weeks on Movie Maker, I'v learnt about transitions between scenes and not to use a straight cut all the time. I also learnt how to add music to the background and how to drown out video volume so i can use music volume. 

Not everything starts off perfect. I ended up with 7 attempts on my laptop before i got one that i felt was right. It was actually attempt 6 that turned out the best of all 7. 

But i did enjoy my task, and i found Movie Maker comfortable simple to work with.
