Post-Production

Once we had finished all of our filming we captured all of our footage onto the computer. We then began using Adobe Premier Pro to edit our footage. As our group was quite large we decided to take it in turns to edit the footage whilst the other members gave advice and opinions.

One of the most difficult parts we found to edit was the match on action sequence as we had to edit the two clips and exactly the right points before joining them together. We also had a few technical difficulties with the software and computer playing up. Each time we inserted a new clip or edited an existing one, another would delete itself. So each time we edited something we spent time trying to recover the other clip. This proved incredibly time consuming and very stressful. Eventually we had to work around this by re-editing our clips and putting them back into the sequence.

Although I had never used Premier Pro before, I found it quite simple to use. I learnt different editing techniques and how to insert titles and transitions into the clips. We were pleased with our final product considering how much time we had to film and edit it with all of the changes that we had to make. I think that it would have been a lot more interesting with our final plot incorporated and with more time the editing could have been smoother, but overall I am happy with the result.

Here it is!
