Production Blog: Editing Two

 

Today we finished the editing process. We started off by reviewing the plan that we made that I shared in the previous blog. This plan included watching the film. We then had to listen for any unwanted noise. We then looked for any unwanted objects. . And then we had to decide where and when we wanted to add the title of the movie. Wyatt shared all the clips that we had in our group chat, and we decided which ones we wanted to stitch together to make the film. At this point, Wyatt and I cut out the parts of the clip when the camera was still rolling, but there was no dialogue or anything else that is important to the film. I did this so that we would not take up unwanted time. Once everything was stitched together, we knew how much time we had leftover to add in the title, names of the production companies, Director, etc. At this point, Wyatt started to remove any unwanted objects that were in our film. At the same time, I started to work on the title, coming up with names for the production company, adding in the directors, and adding effects to make the title look nice. as this was happening, Taylor and Cecelia were also adding in the royalty-free music. The last thing that we all needed to do was take out any unwanted sounds. This did not take us very long. All that was left to do, is to add all the separate components that we did to the same file and review the film. We all watch the film one last time, coming over it for any errors that we might have missed. We found one issue with the sound. With a couple clicks of the mouse, the issue was resolved. We came to the conclusion that we did as best the job as we could and we are excited to share our project with the graders.

Group Blog (2022/23)

Image
   I would like to do my A-level film in a group. Last year, I expressed my uncertainty on the topic of groups. I stated how I often found it easier to work by myself because you have full control over all the components of the project. I went on to say "You do not have to rely on other people, and you will not be dragged down if they forget their work". I remember stating that there was no clear answer, but this year, I have come to a conclusion. I decided that the best way to go is to put my trust in the abilities of my group mates. I would like to partner with Max, Jibril, and Alec because I believe it will make creating the film easier. Max is someone who can point me in the right direction. We have been in many of the same classes over the last couple years and we have gotten along very well. He has, and presumably will keep track of what elements need to be included and help with the design process. Considering that I have some artistic talent, I will be doing the story...
