Editing Issues - General Information Update

As previously mentioned on my previous 'Editing Issues' blog post, I stated that in an attempt to edit our footage using 'Adobe Premier Pro' we were going to transfer the footage from 'Windows Movie Maker' into a full video format and then try uploading that onto Adobe; with the hopes that Windows will have self-corrected our footage from being corrupt. This has proven successful and we are now able to edit using the more advanced Adobe editing software again.

Due to us having no other choice but to upload our entire footage onto 'Adobe Premier Pro', as a whole video format, we then incurred the process of cutting the video down into the individual shots needed to begin editing each shot in sync with the music. Once this was completed, we then had issues trying to shorten our jump cuts down, to be in time with the instrumental guitar beats at the beginning of the song. We eventually overcome this problem by slowing the footage, along with slowing down the song both by 60%, to therefore cut each jump cut precisely in time to the instrumental.

The stage we're currently at, is waiting for the next available day to complete our filming. This is proving difficult as we need to film on a day that everyone is free and the weather needs to be remotely the same as our first successful day filming... The weather hasn't been entirely on our side this last couple of weeks, which of course has put us further behind. We hope to complete our filming over the half term break, when we have more time available.
