Today, we used our 2 hour lesson to do more editing.
Firstly, we went through the footage with the razor tool and tried to cut out any footage that we knew that we wasn't going to be using (again).
We did not do this specifically, as we didn't want to cut things out which we may find we needed at a later stage.
We decided it was time to start fitting some of the lyrics with the lip syncing. We dragged the song onto the audio line and then found the first shot we needed (which was Frakie so Charlottes clips were needed, so we brought all of these to the front of our editing line).
Once we found this, we cut it down with the razor and dragged it to the beginning of the time-line where the music starts. We were able to match this well and it didnt take us too long.
For the next part of the song we chose to use the nature shots,I had suggested a spinning technique for a shot. I took the camera free hand and recorded it whilst spinning round, despite getting dizzy when i played it back it looked how i wanted it too.
Then, we had a close up shot of Charlotte singing the second line. After this we then cut another section, which was shots we didnt mean to film it was just because we left the camera on. The shot worked well because it had a similiar 'nature' feel to the tree shot, we put a reverse edit on this so it was movement going outwards.
We then continued with Charlottes verse, we made sure it wasnt all signing and we wanted to make short but sweet edits. We had to go through all the different attempts we had at filming and this took us some time but we had to get the best for our video.
We then decided to continue with the verse as far as we could going on the time limit.
