Editing session 1

We had our first editing session today and it was interesting to see how the filming actually turned out on a screen. Matt gave us a brief recap of how to use Adobe Premier Pro, as we didn't edit anything since our prelim task a while ago. We decided to start off by looking through the material that we actually got, so that we could get a glimpse at what we were going to work with for the next couple of weeks. After, we shared each of our ideas of how we would want the final product to look like and just our visions in general. Ashen had quite a specific way of creating the thriller by adding voice overs and black screens in the beginning of the opening title sequence. All of us were considerate of each others ideas and we decided on working around every idea and trying to include as much as we could. Soon after, we arranged all of the material that we were intended to use into bins.


Here is an example of a bin layout in Adobe Premiere Pro :

Closer to the end of the lesson we started editing, copying and pasting products that we thought would work. We came across a continuity problem because Zell a member of our cast had taken her mask off with her left hand in one clip and then the next clip that it cuts into has her taking the mask off with her right hand. This meant that we had to substitute one of the clips.
