Starting the Editing Process

As previously mentioned, our group first started filming during the weekend of February 22nd, 2020. When the group got together again in class we officially started the editing process of the final project. Our group did start the editing process but we weren't able to do much just yet. The main task our group was able to fulfill was dump the videos onto the laptop of one of our group members. Our group couldn't do as much editing since the group member whose laptop contained the videos dumped was leaving early for a school trip. Everyone agreed to fully edit starting on Friday, February 28th. As a group, we will try to rearrange the videos in chronological order starting from scene 1 and ending with the last scene. Then, we will try to incorporate titles into the beginning of the film. The scenes our group will edit were the scenes that mainly took place in the parking lot. Our group will try to make the scenes flow together so that it does not end up being too choppy. For the transitions, we plan on using jump cuts for the most part. On Friday, everyone plans on coming together to finally make extra changes to the final project. Our group is making sure most of our movie is ready by the time our class starts peer review. On the day of peer review each student will have the opportunity to critique other students film and suggest changes that needs to be made. Although our group technically didn't begin editing in greater details, we did manage to transfer the raw footages to the group member's personal laptop. It may not be a big step, however we are slowly beginning to transfer to the editing process. The ultimate end goal will be for each scene to be fully edited and ready to be displayed. It was for the best to dump all the raw footages onto the laptop so that no footage gets accidentally deleted. Overall, the full on editing process will begin on Friday, February 28th when most of our group members will be present. For now, the only thing our group did was dump the videos onto the laptop since one group member had to leave early for a school trip.
