post preduction/ Editing

Editing time was divided between the three of us, some of the people i worked with had little experience with the macs, so knew little of its potential, as a group we could all put our knowledge together and help teach how to use the software. Different effects were applied to different clips & then in most cases taken off and replaced with different transitions or effects. There was alot of trial and error, and replacing of clips when we realised that they didnt sit as well as we thought they would. The editing part was possibly the hardest as matching up clips to the voices and making them last the right amount of time was very time consuming. The software also didnt seem to like us inserting clips along the timeline as it would completly shift the whole proget along when we did. We tried numerous things to counteract this but in the end we just had to accept that it wasnt going to fix itself, and made our lives eaiser by inserting bookmarks before each clip (there were alot of clips)
