Me and my group will soon be commencing the production process. Once all of the filming is complete, we will move on to the post - production stage. A very important part of post - production is editing. Previously for our preliminary task, I edited together my footage with iMovie. However, for the opening 2 minutes of our horror film 'Maisie', we will be using Premiere Pro. With pieces of footage filmed as an example and practice edit ahead of the preliminary task, I used Premiere Pro to create a short piece of film. I took screen shots of the process which highlights how the layout differs from iMovie. For example, on Premiere Pro, you can layer two pieces of footage over each other and change the opacity of them, so you can see two clips simultaneously. This cannot be achieved on iMovie. Cutting and editing the footage together is also different, however it is simple to use. In addition, you can also change the effects on the edited footage and drag just the audio or the video down.
One of the problems our group will face when editing is making sure everyone is happy and has equal say in the final edit. Previously, we have edited individually, so editing as a group may pose a challenge.
