Blog Update: Editing 08.02.11

Today we focused on sound in editing. We spent our double lesson looking at GarageBand and some of the sound effects it has, that we could use in our opening sequence. We really wanted an audience sound in our piece as the shows started, and we found this in GarageBand and was able to use it in our piece. it sounds good and fits in well with our footage. We also planned to sort out all our dialogue today, but with some complications, we still have a bit of work to do on this, but have next mondays double lesson to do so. We managed to get our footage down to the maximum time length and we are still currently trying to work out a few bits of footage to fit together, where we have cut lots of footage. Additionally we adapted our ending to our opening sequence, and changed the last bit by cutting the last scene we had. This is because it took up time and it wasn't really essential to have included. It now looks better than it did before, with a fade out to white after the dance show piece, following text '8 months before...' rather than another scene, which was needed.
