Editing the movie

The program we used when editing was Final Cut Pro. At first i found it very confusing and hard to understand but as i got more familiar with it i managed to start being able trimming and puting clips together.

Originally we wanted to do something different in the editing process and make an effect for one of the actors faces to fade into another. Although we realised that this was a bit hard and with such little knowledge on the program and with not much time it wouldnt have been practical.

When editing i did some of the basic things such as adjusting the colour/exposure/contrast so it all matched. (we shot the outside location over 2 days as the lighting got hard to work with) in the footage it was very noticable so i had to correct it which took a while.
Above is a picture of the kind off effect i wanted to bring into the film with the fuzzy tv screen. On certain shots i added "old tv effect" to make it look as though it was being watched on a tv by somebody making it a bit more edgy.
