Post Production

 Editing Process

As of now, the only draft of editing is my personally edited film. Each person in my group had to individually edit our film. We had to edit our film during school on the computers. The editing software we chose was We Video due to how easily accessible it is. We Video was also very easy to use and had no difficulties uploading the videos onto the computer. I didn't have to watch any videos on how to use the software, overall a very simple and easy editing software.

Our film is a voiceover, so overall the sound is plain. What I did was mute the shots audios and added the voiceover, over the shots. At this point I just needed to trim the clips in order to fit the voiceover. For our shot transitions, it was mostly straight cuts, so I made sure there weren't no gaps between each shot. 

Revision

What I believe I need to go over the film is the quality. Maybe add a filter and slow down a few shots in order to give the film a natural look. My group and I will need to redo a few of our shots like our close up on Darren and a finger was covering the bottom left of the shot. 


Difficulties

The main issue we ran into during editing was the editing software. Our primary editing software was going to be Adobe Premier but, no more than 3 people can edit in a account, uploading our clips into the software was very difficult, and our computers couldn't support the software so, instead we chose WeVideo.

 Technology Used

The most reliable and easily usable technology used for recording was our phones. The best quality camera was my I-Phone 11 Pro. What I learned while filming in our shots were the lighting. We would have to shoot facing down towards a stairway and some stairways were darker than the other. So we would have to position our actor towards a light source.

Difficulties

A main difficulties while filming were security. Me and my group wanted to film in a stairway, but our school security wouldn't allow us to film in the stairwell even though we had a pass. So me and I group had to improvise by filming in the main school stairwell.

Group Schedule

 Scheduling 

My group and I have put together a schedule for our filming throughout the next two weeks.

To begin our film process, we would start with the most common locations to film in first like the hallways. With each day, we would have a time window of about a hour and 30 minutes so if we needed to redo a shot, it was possible.
