Editing our Thriller

We started looking and editing the footage on Monday, however I wasn't in that lesson and neither was Sasha, so this left India to look thought the shots we took and organise them into the right order. India also got started on editing small sections so when Sasha and I were back in the lessons it was easy to know what footage we weren't using and what footage we were. It also made editing and cutting the clips easier and start to make a rough cut of our opening sequence.

When editing our clips we had to make sure that clips showed what we wanted to show. We did this by using the timeline in Adobe Premiere Pro, this made it easier to see what clips we have edited and what we still needed to do. 


While editing we found that it was important to know what clips were what so we did this by putting them into folders with subheadings. This made it easier to find clips and slot them in so we could edit them. We had to remember to keep saving our work because Adobe Premiere did crash a couple of times which made us have to get Matt or Paul to help us restart it and bring back what we were working on. 


When editing we would being clips forward to the section we were editing and then we would crop them to make them fit in with the rest of the sequence. This was quite hard at a few point because of the continuity however we managed to sort it out.  

We thought we had finished cropping the pieces all together however, we realised that it was to short so we went back and reviewed our footage so we could find something to put in, in the end we found close up of the makeup and we out these together with lots of other shots to make a short sequence of the cuts, doing this added more tension to the overall sequence.
