Editing Blog: Individual Work Towards Editing

    Coming towards the finally of this project, as a group we all made sure to put a joined effort into the editing portion. Rather than have us all crammed next to each other trying to get the same job done, we assigned ourselves different jobs when it came to editing. These jobs included, titles, sound, cutting of clips, and transitions. All of these would come together to complete a full edited film. Personally, I was in charge of titles. I looked through all of our clips and looked for the best places to add a short length Title. We previously filled out a list of all the titles we would include and whose names we would put in each title. Before we started all of this though, we made sure to watch the unedited clips in the order we put it in and had it perfect. We handed it off next to Roscoe where he put his time in to make sure the clips would flow with smooth transitions. After all the clips ran in good harmony, I got handed the computer and started to insert all of the titles. I made sure to find spots where there was little to no background that would take the attention off the title itself. Also, the small absence of background motion needed to run long enough where someone may easily read the titles. Once all the titles were written clearly, I played with the font and colors of the letters and had it looking really nice. Elijah was our last step with inserting any voice overs and some music. All of our input was included when picking the music. We wanted music that would set the tone mainly and that’s exactly what we did. The music flowed nicely and intensified when needed too. We looked over what we had done and it really looked like a full short film. All of our abilities were put together and our cane a product we can call our own. We’re far from finished but at least now we can say we have made our own title film. It should sit nicely as is but we’re not done yet.
