Editing

Well, on Wednesday we began our filming for our practise piece, and due to the fact we knew exactly what we wanted to do, we finished our filming on the Thursday.

We then went back up to the editing room and checked all of our footage to ensure it was up to scratch, and realising that our footage was fine, we decided to mix the music so it fitted our needs.

As we were only using the first verse and the final chorus for our music video, we had to modify the music quite a lot so it sounded near-enough seamless, which the finished music is.

That took us to the end of Thursday.

When we returned on Friday, we began adding in all of our video clips, and editing them together so that the transitions occur when we planned them to, and to synchronise the lip-syncing to the music.

We also modified the colour-balance on all of the shots to represent different things, for example our piece consists of 2 main time periods, real-time, and various flashbacks. For the flashbacks, I created a preset which made the video clips more red and yellow, by changing the colour balance, and for the real-time I created a preset which made the shots more blue and green, to signify that the flashbacks were in happier times than the real-time shots.

Once we had finished adding the colour balance modifications, we made some finalising touches such as some glow transitions when going into and going out of a flashback.

Then, when we were sure that we had done everything we wanted to on this piece, we rendered the piece out, ready to be exported at our next convience.

Once we have done this, finished our CD cover and insert and back cover and finished our advert, we have completed the practice piece!
