Editing So Far...

We are surprisingly far ahead with out work and almost have a rough cut of our video. Placing everything on to the timeline on Final Cut was fairly easy between the 3 of us and selecting what pieces of film go where was not difficult as we had planned thoroughly enough to have a good idea of what we wanted the sequence to look like.

Inevitably, the most trying and time consuming thing about editing is making sure that the syncing is perfect. We have worked through this quite well so far and have a very basic edit, however we know that once we have completed the rough edit we will need to go back and put our undivided attention into making sure the syncing is precise the highest degree possible.

As a team, the 3 of us our working really well and manage to explain our thoughts. We all seem to be on the same wavelength which is one of the reasons I think we have made it this far already. We don't always agree on how we should edit each specific bit but one thing we all do is compromise so that we can come to a fair agreement. Additionally, if we are really stuck on making a decision we may ask a friend who isn't in the group as they have fresh eyes and an unbiased opinion.

I am hoping that by the end of next week we will have a full first cut and from then on we can focus on detail.
