My group and I have started to edit our opening sequence using Final Cut. During the editing I am going to help my group create transitions, titles, credits, colours, fades and other effects that my group and I have considered adding towards the project and editing of our opening sequence.
This is the second time we had to start editing our opening sequence as my group encountered a very large problem. Before we had to start editing our opening sequence again, we had all the clips imported onto the computers hard drive. Unfortunately, the computers hard drive was not backed up onto the system and our clips were deleted making our Final Cut project corrupt and unusable as there was no footage to edit with. So, my group and I had to re-import the video clips which was very time consuming as we had a lot of clips to import.
Luckily our group knew how to quickly put the clips back into order and cut the clips where it was needed and this time editing we knew exactly how we wanted the scenes and shots to flow and what shots we didn't want that we had filmed so they could be deleted straight away, instead of deciding what shots to keep. We kept the ones that myself and the rest of the group thought were the best and we deleted the others we thought were not satisfactory. (The shots that had mistakes in/bloopers and shots where the camera
was shaking too much)
I think that the editing lessons and meetings are great and I am very much enjoying them a lot. Not only am I enjoying editing our opening sequence, but I think it's a very good way to get more familiar with the editing software that we're using and it was very good preparation towards up-coming tasks and work for my Media education.
