Editing

We edited as a group in which we all took turns in doing it. The first thing we did was insert all of our clips on to iMovie. We then imported them into the right order and watched the entire film without any editing. This pointed out clear errors in our filming. These errors included; points where we paused for too long, sections where we mucked up our lines, bits where we laughed accidentally and sections where the camera tilted slightly and it wasn't meant to. From this, we did it bit by bit and edited together, ensuring we all agreed on any decisions we made. Admittedly, there were some sections that were harder to edit because at first we couldn't all see the errors. After editing all of it, we had our teacher check it over to see what she thought. She helped us make a few minor adjustments.

Filming day- Preliminary Task

Today, we filmed our preliminary task. We used our storyboards as a basis, although did make a few changes which we will reflect on when we do the editing stage next week. The filming we did last lesson didn't save properly so we refilmed it but with more success than last time. We came across several bumps during filming such as the noise from the hand dryer or the people outside talking but eventually we was able to get it finished. This week has been very successful in terms of productivity because our storyboards are complete and so is the filming. Next week, the plan is to start editing which I think will take us a little while, although I am looking forward to it.

Preliminary Task Group

The people I will be working with for my Preliminary Task are Paige Anderson  (http://paigelandersonmedia.blogspot.co.uk ), Jasmine Reagon- Welch (http://jasminereagonwelch.blogspot.co.uk ) and Eleanor Blackman ( http://eblackman44.blogspot.co.uk ). I chose them because they are hard-working, committed people who I get on well with. Additionally, I am able to work collaboratively with them.
