Post production we went to the editing suit and logged on. We downloaded our footage. Rather than downloading each clip (rush) we captured all of the shots in one. This meant we had to then watch through the film and take out each clip that we wanted. We found the software quite difficult to start with at the beginning but soon got the hang of it. We were able to put together our film quite quickly at this stage.
Having edited our film we had a series of rushes that we named numerically, we then put these on the timeline and started to build up our film.
We used a combination of hard cuts and fades as transitions. In places we had some continuity problems and we used fades here to try and hide some of the mistakes, we should have re shot some scenes but with absences we decided to use what we had.
We decided against using music as we struggled to find non copyright songs that suited the film.
We put our countdown and bars and end credits on the production and watched it through with our teacher and other members of the class. We didn't use an opening title as we didn't think we needed a name for what we had done as it wasn't a complete film. We made several changes to the rushes after this to get the continuity right in view of what our class members and teacher said. In the end we were quite pleased with what we had produced despite the few small errors.
