Editing

All off our group have contributed to editing our final piece. There are many thongs we need to do too make our filming look professional and look right. This involves many things such as stabilizing shots, cutting and shortening clips and even in our case reversing and speeding up shots for our flash back.

Whilst editing we had to transform our footage to make it look like a flash back. This flashback would be seen at the beginning off our film, When making it we had to go back on it a couple times. This is because we first didn't make the reverse speed high enough so was only double normal speed and the second time we went back was because we had too many shots in the extract so had to delete some and be specific in the ones we chose.

The way we made the flash back was to first take the footage we wanted to reverse and select it. After doing this you have to reverse the footage so when it lays it does so in reverse. This can be found on the footage select bar on the right. After this you have too click on the drop bar on the footage and then select speed of clip. We experimented with different speeds and came to the agreement that 400% faster was what we wanted to go with. This made it look professional and viewers obviously established that it was a flash back. When doing this you also have to wait for the footage to render and this may take a few minutes depending on the length of the footage and the action waiting to be rendered. You will know when it has finished as the bar will not be red at the top on the timeline.
