Editing

We started editing our video. First, we dumped our footage on the computer. Rejoice did most of the editing since we split it sections.  We made some clips longer to fit the time requirement. We started editing it by putting all our scenes because they were out of order. The first thing we edited was the footage as a whole. We wanted to make a scene where it goes back to the beginning at the end of the music video. That clip made the video longer. So far the music video is 50 seconds long. After editing that scene, we started to edit the first part of the video.

We will use a transition for the flashbacks to show it clearly. We wanted to make sure that we made it clear to the audience that not the whole video was not the same time period. There were some scenes that were hard to edit because they were not fitting correctly. We had to decide what shot to use for the movie scene to make it fit. We did not want to make it look out of place. There is one scene we will need to refilm because it did not turn out the way we wanted it to. The shot did not look like it would go with the music video. We still have some scenes to put in the music video so it will be longer.  Later on, the scenes that are missing will be added. The editing will continue, and we have some more things to do in order for this video to be finished. 

Some scenes will probably be switched to make the video make sense. We may have to shorten some of the clips we made longer depending on the new clips we add. Most of the scenes will use jump cuts. Since there is a cut off time for the song in the music video, we will fade the song to make it seem more natural. Even though there were really some bumps, I think we are off to a good start. We plan to put more transitions and to edit it more. We also plan to order the rewind scene. Today was a very productive day. Overall, I like how to music video is coming together. We will then export it when we are done.
