Preliminary editing evaluation - Georgia Serrecchia

Evaluation of preliminary task - editing

What did we do?

After we had finished planning and filming the preliminary task we uploaded the clips onto final cut pro. Once we had chosen which clips we were going to use, we put them into the correct order and then started to edit them. Below shows the editing that we used in our video:


This screenshot shows the beginning clip where we used text saying the title of our preliminary video. We did this by choosing the text option and then choosing the colours and font that we wanted.






This screenshot shows the clips where we added slow motion to show Charlie walking over to Georgia sitting on the bench. We did this by just choosing the slow motion option and the speed we wanted it which was on final cut pro.

For this part of the video, we had to cut the clips and put them in different points throughout the video to show the shot - reverse shots and make the video run more smoothly.








This final shot is of the last clip where Georgia is picking up all the paperwork which Charlie threw on the floor and it shows our credits appearing on the screen. We also did this by choosing the text option and then adding effects to it.


What went well?

Whilst editing the video, deciding where and what type of editing to use went well because we decided quickly and we knew how to add each piece of editing without having any troubles.

Problems encountered:

We had some problems when trying to get the video to run continuously and look right because at the start it looked quite fake. However, in the end we managed to figure out a way in order to get the video to look right and flow correctly.

What could we do to improve?

If we had to do this again, I would've filmed different clips and increase the range of clips because then we could've included more types of editing to make the video look more creative and professional. I would also work on the continuity of the video.
