Our first edit week

| Our edit week 1 schedule |
Above is a picture of our first week's edit schedule which we were advised to create and it proved very helpful in terms of communication amongst the group, Miss Blackborow, Miss Dymioti and Emma. (Our technician). Our teachers were now clear on when we were expected to be working on our sequences so they could make sure someone was available for help, if needed. Editing required a lot of sessions and we tried our best to use every bit of free time we had, including lunchtimes and after school, in the edit suite working on our sequence. During editing, we had to watch all our new rushes, rename them, order the shots and then begin actually editing each clip and adding music etc. It was quite a long, tedious process at times, but overall enjoyable. We were able to notice shots which needed re-filming and scheduled ourselves in for a back-up shoot that following weekend, making sure we let Emma know we would be needing the production kit again. We tried out lots of different video effects for the lola tracking scene (when she spots her boyfriend talking to another girl) and found one, the blur effect, perfect for highlighting how Lola was meant to be feeling. After our TA saying that Lola needed to look more intoxicated, we decided to add effects after filming which further highlighted this. Every edit session we had planned when the whole group was present (usually lunchtimes), one member from the group would also be testing different font styles for our titles on LiveType. We took reference from Godzilla's wording of their titles from their opening sequence.
I think we worked really well together, and once we hd got the most tedious part of watching and renaming shots out of the way, we were able to really involve ourselves as a group in making decisions for the final edit.
