Prelim First Editing Session

Today was our first editing session on our preliminary video sequence. We used Final Cut Pro to do this and were taught multiple skills and techniques in order to learn basic film language and how to work with the programme.

Once the programme was opened we created a folder named 'rush bin' which means the unedited version of our footage, we then watched our and decided as a group what looked good and what didn't work so well. Once watched, we created another folder named 'log bin', this is where we put the footage that we want in our final piece. Using the editing tools we used 'i' for in and 'o' for out, this is how we cut our footage in order to get a precise and accurate timed sequence. Once decided where to cut to and from we used the basic technique of 'drag and drop' to place in the timeline.

This editing session was a good beginning to starting to edit our footage to create a full sequence.
