Re-Editing

The feedback that we got back from the peer review was really useful. Me and my partner learned that we needed to add more titles and throw in smoother transitions. Our re-editing session was very important. Firstly we had to wait about 20 minutes for the pinnacle studios to boot up on our computers. And we had to go through a number of computers to finally find the ones that worked. Eventually we found a functional computer and could finally edit. We imported our raw footage through the techniques we learned from the previous projects. We set all of our raw footage into one folder on our desktop labeled "Movie," then when we go to import we click the plus sign next to desktop and then the folder labeled "Movie," and then we have all of our footage and then all we do is click import. After that, I was mainly in charge of the editing. Because we had such few functional computers and editing is really just a one-man job, Andrew wasn't clicking anything. However, he still gave me lots of suggestions and also chose the music that we are going to be using in our music video. Originally, we planned on getting permission from RCA records to use Teddy Bear by Elvis Presley, but they never responded. So instead we chose the easier route. We looked up "Elvis like royalty free music" and got many options. We chose for something a little different than our original song. This music is much more upbeat and lively and more like a rock song. But after watching over it a few times it was clear it fit in perfectly. The titles haven't been added in yet, simply because we ran out of time. Transitions to us look clean and well-placed. And finally, we are still looking back at our video and adding more footage to make sure it reaches the time that it needs to reach.
