5/1 Organizing files and collaborating with director to delete “bloopers” and determine which shots were better than others. 50 minutesYes, organizing files prior to editing is vital to being efficient once transferring files to Premiere Pro.
5/2Naming files, downloading videos, and transferring them to Premiere Pro. 50 minutesTransferring all audio and video before beginning editing is vital to an efficient editing process.
5/3Reviewing storyboard to edit first scene of film. 50 minutesAs the editor, there were a few moments where I was unsure of how the film is ordered because there are lots of similar or repetitive shots. Reviewing the storyboard was important to ensure that I was editing as our group initially intended.
5/4Editing rough edit (without any music).50 minutesCreating a rough edit is important so that the director especially (along with the other group members) can get a general sense of how the film will look, and they can provide feedback.
5/5Collaborating with sound designer to create music, and incorporating this into the rough edit. 50 minutes
Making sure that we are on the same page about music was important so that the editing correlated with the beats of the edits, along with ensuring the music matched the genre of comedy/reality tv like.
