Editing Process for Music Video

12/5 After all our filming from the beach, to our group members house, to Las Olas we have finally completed the recording process. It has been a fun journey working on my project with my friends, we learned how to work together and listen to each others opinions on what should we do. Thankfully, we all finished our filming in time when we weren't busy with other things in our life. Finally it was time for us to edit. We each split our work equally. I did the first part of the editing, another member did the second, and another group member finished the last part of the music video. Since we were doing it on a group members computer we chose to use iMovie for us to edit our music video. We all discussed the plan and our ideas for what we want to include. We were all together when editing for it to be easier for all of us. We had our own biased opinions but in the end we came to agreement for all of our editing choices.

     Since I was doing the first part of our editing process I wanted to start it with cool transitions to match the fun vibe of the song. Each of us did this under the supervision of each person in our group. At first we were a bit confused on how to use iMovie but we watch the videos on how to edit. With the help of my group member we all figured out how to use it. I came to a conclusion it was easier than Pinnacle Studios. A person in our group has had a lot of experience using iMovie so with her help we were able to figure it out. I included transitions like fade in, fade, out, jump cuts, and more. Since we are not fully done with our editing. We will continue to work on it tomorrow. we tried our best to make it look professional but we still have work to finish.
     Two of our group members continue to do the second and third portion. With the help of the videos and our group member, we were able to learn so much more about the editing process. I’m excited for the next projects that come in store. It is still not fully easy, but me and my group are getting there. I’m glad to work with my friends since we are comfortable explaining our opinions and ideas. We all learned more about editing shots. Our notes from our AICE media class were very helpful. I hope to become a greater film editor throughout this year. So far we have all improved immensely from our last filming project. I believe my group and I work well together and will have a great finished product.
