In the Cutting Room

After only two days of filming, we are now editting our video.

First things first, we have to reorganise the music itself to fit in with our video and the time scale of 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds. To do this we are only using the first verse and the final chorus. Luckily these two blended well with each other and so when we play it back it is barely noticeable.


Next we have to sync up the lip-syncing with the music itself which is an extremely arduous task in itself and after several attempts we finallys have it worked out.


Then we altered the colour balance in order to highlight which clips are flashbacks and which are present day, we did this by altering the balance and setting them as 'Flashback' and 'Normal' presets to make the job infinitely simpler. With the flashbacks focusing on brighter and warmer colours such as red and orange and the normal colour being made up of colder colours such as blue and green.


Finally, we added in a few short transitions to ease the change in shot.

Aaaaand...we are done...all in a days work :)
