Editing blog


     Today the editing of our music video was finally started..... oh brother! We chose to do the song “Love Don’t Change by Jeremiah.” It’s an old RnB love song, everybody loved it back in the day so we thought it’d be perfect. One of team mates had grabbed a laptop for us to use. I knew the editing process was going to be interesting to say the least. Instead of using my account this time, we ended up using another reliable source. Pinnacle studios always gave us difficulties in the past so I was a bit skeptical. My group members  and I ended up talking about what shots we thought we should use. I love conversations like this because you get to see everyone’s creative side. After talking for a good 5 minutes, we where ready to edit.

 I didn’t know if I wanted to be happy or sad about this. After patiently waiting on pinnacle studios to pop up, which took forever by the way, we finally got started one one of the main processes. My team member entered the flash drive into the computer. All our footage begun to upload to the computer. One of my group members deleted the sample footage. I then of  clicked the import button, and then we watched the files upload. I then clicked the folder with our flash drive name on it. We had to wait patiently till all our files were uploaded.  This process took a huge amount of time but I think we were prepared for it. After all that time, the video was now ready to edit.

We had to figure which footage we were going to use and which we were going to ignore.
 We then had to drag the scenes slowly to the editing strip on the bottom of the computer. We had to cut the scenes so they made sense. By this time the class was almost over. I guess time does fly when you’re having fun. I would’ve been scared but we already went through this so we knew we had to have a backup plan. My group mates and I group thought it’d be best  to edit on iMovie.. Later on in the day, we conducted a group call.. We discussed how we wanted the scenes to look, as one of our group mates edited the scenes on her phone. After we finished editing, my group mate sent the video to all of us, so we could look over it. I thought this editing process would be dreadful but to be honest I was slightly wrong.
