Construction - Editing Day 1

In the the time that I had today, I managed to use it to start the editing process of the video. The first couple of things that I had to do was the setting up of the video and transport the videos from the SD card into a separate folder, to allow them to be stored on the computer. This was beneficial as it meant that I was able to film on any SD card, and not have to think about where all the footage is as it can all be put in one place on the computer.

After moving the video clips into the folder, I used the remainder of the time to start looking at the clips I had filmed, to see if any of it was usable and then from that I came up with some sort of an order that I wanted the clips to be in. The drawbacks of doing this was the idea that I did not have the song with me on the first day of editing, which caused a problem as I wasn't sure on how long my video needed to be. As well as not having the song with me, I also hadn't managed to film the performer. Not having these two things made it more difficult as spacing was not going to be the same with the song, as the lyrics and the video need to match with one another.

The first day of editing, was the shortest period of time that I used, which meant that it was used as a time to get things sorted and make sure that I was going to have each thing I needed the next time I was going to edit, otherwise it would then become time where I am unable to be productive and get the editing of the video done, in order to meet the deadline for the first draft.
