Preliminary Task. Editing complete.

Yesterday me, Tom, Mo and Aron decided that we NEEDED to get the last bit of footage. So we decided that we were going to come back to the class at lunch so we could finally get the end of our Preliminary Task.

There was a slight problem when we realised that we needed to re film a few shots due to the fact the Mo and Aron were wearing different clothes to the ones that they were wearing in previous scenes. This was not a big problem because all it meant was that we needed to re film a few short moments. We didn't need to re film all of the sections after the change of clothes because it was an easy job to edit in the different shots that we changed around the shots that we had that didn't need to be changed.

The editing was simple, I cut down each shot to the right amount that was needed, cutting off any extra bits that were not needed. I choose to put a title at the beginning of the clip to introduce what it is that the audience were going to be watching, after this I faded the title out and brought in the clip of me walking around the corner through the door, from there onwards it was just simple cuts from shots to shots. At the end of the clip I faded it to black so the audience know that it is over.

The editing that went on was not a difficult task because I have had past experience working with editing soft wear. Adobe was new to me but it didn't take long to be able to familiarise myself with what I had to work with.
Seeing as my group didn't know a lot about what they were doing when it came to editing they decided to leave me to it because I was the best person for the job.

The jobs that we each had were:
Matt: Actor/Editor/Director
Tom:Camera Man/Director
Mohammad: Actor
Aron: Actor
Nadib: Actor
