Editing:
During my first session of editing I got all of our footage
from our first film and put it into chronological order for a
first rough edit. I only imported our best footage as we had
multiple shots of the same scene to make sure nothing went
wrong, so it made it easier to edit in the future when
backtracking.
Problems encountered I noticed that all of our footage that
we had filmed was unusable due to inadequate lighting, making
the footage very grainy and therefore poor resolution.
How I resolved the problem I notified the cinematographer
and as I am the director as well as editor we were quickly
able to organise another film date.

Editing:
During this editing session I got all of our new footage and
discarded all of our old footage as it was all unusable. I put
the new footage in a chronological order and viewed what we
have so far to find any room for improvement. Again I only
imported the best footage as we had several shots of the same
scenes.
Problems encountered I found that we have no close-ups or
extreme close-ups and feel like we need them to enhance our
footage. We also needed a POV shot for one particular scene as
it looked hard to follow without it.

How I resolved the problem I contacted the cinematographer

and we established another filming date, we also make a rough
list of shots that we think would add to the production.

Editing:
This editing session I edited in the footage we got from our
third film and watched what we can so far and analysed for any
problems or room for improvement.
Problems encountered there was some unwanted background
noise such as talking in one of the scenes which ruined the
scene
How I resolved the problem I contacted the cinematographer
and organised a final film.

Editing:
This editing session I incorporated the extra shots that we
filmed in our latest film. I had make sure that the match on
action was performed well during the scenes as they were
filmed on two different dates and its important that the
match on action is done correctly otherwise the footage looks
wrong.
Problems encountered there were no problems in this session,
however we did find that there was room for improvement
through an extra filming session.
How I resolved the problem we organised an extra filming
session and got some extra shots

Editing:
This editing session I incorporated the final shots that we
filmed from the extra filming session and now all of the
visual editing is complete.
Problems encountered the edited piece had no non-diegetic
sound.
How I resolved the problem as we are sharing sound within
our group of two both me and my other group member looked for
sound effects needed. To make the process easier we made a
rough list of what sound effects we needed and divided it
within the group.
Editing:
In this session I came in during the holidays which meant that
I got extra time for editing and was able to do much more in
one session.
This session I edited it in the non-diegetic sound that we
gathered as a group and made sure that it comes in at the
correct times. I also had to fade it in and out for it to seem
natural to the audience.
I also incorporated the use of titles, and created a title
sequence, crediting the crew and actors in the production as
well as including the name of the production.
Problems encountered one of the sound effects cannot be
heart without headphones on.
How I resolved the problem I found a similar sound, that can
be heard without the use of headphones.

This was the last editing session and the footage is now
complete and ready to upload to YouTube.
Overall, I feel that the role of editor was best suited to

because I already had previous knowledge of how to edit
final cut. I also have good communication skills making
easier to tell my group on how to improve the footage and
give feedback as well as receive it.
I was

time after school to edit our production meaning that I
devote a lot of time towards the process.
In conclusion, the editing process was a long one however it

was worth it in the end for the finished product.
