Editing: InShot experimentation

  Today I continued the editing process of our film. Our overall plan was for me to begin the process. I took all the footage from our last filming session and uploaded it to the software I planned to use. The app I plan to use is called “InShot.” Our overall plan for editing changed a lot. After talking to a few of my friends who edit things frequently, I came to a decision. I decided to have myself take all the clips and put them together on my phone. I would then add 5-second spaces between each scene. I began this by putting all the videos into the editing application. I ordered them all in the correct order according to the storyboard. Afterward, I began to cut out the sound of the videos. Then I cut and cropped a few clips that needed it. Overall the process didn’t take long. In total, It took me around 30 minutes. I found this method to be much more efficient than the previous one. Splitting the load of editing made doing other work and things much easier. Overall I felt that it was a much less stressful process than previous. I am eager to see how Jorge continues in the process. Show below is a picture of the “InShot” app home page.

       For the second project we were assigned I decided to work in a group. My group consists of Jorge Lopez, and Christian Bundalevski. I typically like working in group settings because I feel like the different perspectives help provide a better final product. Obviously, I have had group projects in the past that were not so stellar experiences but I feel as if this project will go much more smoothly. Being able to choose groups is very nice as opposed to the teacher deciding.  Jorge Lopez, I have known for many years. We first became friends in the 5th grade and stayed friends all throughout middle school. We ended up going to the same high school together and spent much of last year in discord calls together along with another friend, but that is a story for another day. I have done projects with Jorge in the past and he is very good at coming up with creative ideas. He is also very funny but not overly distracting in a group setting.  Now Christian I have also known for years. W

Editing: Experimentation

       Today was the second day we had in class to edit out commercials together. We began by having Rashawn show us what he had so far. He ended up transferring our work to Adobe Premeair cut Pro so we got to see that program too.    We then began to tinker with the lighting a little bit and ended up settling with more lighting than before. We also experimented with different sounds or music clips but we ended up staying with what we had before.    While watching Rashawn edit we all became curious about how the program he uses worked. I am learning a bit of adobe due to my marketing essentials but only the photoshop aspect. I know next to nothing of Premiere Cut Pro. So Rashawn came up with a proposal. He decided to make us a copy file and we each fiddled around with the software a little bit which was quite fun.    We used the lighting options to put a black and white box over our faces and watched some clips play by, that feature was my personal favorite. We also speed up and slowed
