Editing Blog



          Hello, I hope you're having a nice day.




          So, Today I officially started editing. I say I because I'm the only one doing it as of right now. It's my job to edit the footage and add the music, and it's my partners job to put in the titles. He has to put in the titles because he's the one who made the title designs. So he'd be the one to make the titles. I got all the footage we have together. All the usable clips. I trimmed the footage and put them in their correct order. Not surprisingly, I sat on youtube for almost 20 minutes because I couldn't find a song to use. I wish I had done this earlier, but I didn't, so oh well I guess. After digging through the depths of this video website, I found a soundtrack thing to use. I copy and pasted the link of the video to my email and emailed it to myself so I can download it when I get home. For context of why I did this, I have a video downloader on my computer at home. Since I can't download things directly from youtube, that's how I'm gonna do it. After that I'm either going to put the downloaded video on a USB or email it to myself again. It's a whole process that I may or may not forget to do tonight. Also, a little explanation for the picture. That's the editing program and everything I've edited so far. Oh, and there's Peter. I put the footage on the bottom on the bottom because those are the only clips with relevant sound. The rest of the footage we have is going to have music over it so it's silenced. I'm going to put the music in the 4th track slot on the bottom below the lowest footage. Once we film again, other clips with sound will go in the bottom track as well.

          Of course, Something bad has to happen every time we do something. Right after I typed all of this, I realized that the computer had 10%. So I started saving and closing everything to get ready to log out and put the computer back. I save and close the movie, and guess what happens. I open it back up again to see that the footage I had just edited was no longer there. It didn't save. Well, farewell for now the computer is on 7%.
