Editing process





The programme that we used to edit our film is Final Cut Pro on the iMac's. To create the ident's at the start of the film we used motion. What we first done was that we moved all of our recorded footage from the memory cards onto our hard drive just to make sure that we can move our footage onto Final Cut Pro. We then opened a new project on Final Cut Pro and moved all of our footage onto there. What we then had to do was to order our scenes so that it all makes sense,some scenes we had to shorten whereas some scenes we had to speed up. The scene of where Katie is texting Aaron, was sped up whereas the scene of Chloe walking was shortened. We then researched music and found the two songs that we wanted to use through Thesecession's YouTube page. We first searched on Creative Commons but we only found one song that we liked but it did not have a download button,so we then researched further and found the original track on YouTube. The owner's of the music allowed us to use their songs as long as we do no monteize. We found other songs that also suited our movie and we downloaded two songs. We made sure that they were in the right format so that we could transfer them into Final Cut Pro. We then added the music into Final Cut Pro and matched it up with our footage. After this we had to create the idents and then create the title sequence. Which we done over motion.
Below I have included a slideshow of some pictures we took to prove our editing process.
