We have edited our Preliminary task sequence and have used a Program called "Final Cut". We needed to apload everything we have filmed and save it in the "rush bin". You need the rush bin in order to have backups in case something goes wrong with your editing and you can always go back and re-use the files.
We have chosen the shots we want to use and put them into the "log bin". It was important to name them properly, so you can recognise them afterwards and choose what you need e.g. "Adam wide shot". We had two screen, in the first one you could see the shot you have already got and in the other the edited part. There is a big window called a "time line" below where you can actually edit and change the sequence and the shots. With the help of the "play head" (little yellow triangle) you can play you sequence from whereever you like. We learnt that we could expand the shot or cutting it. We have experimented with overwriting the bit of every cut, so the cut is more smooth. We have also tried to use just the sound of a shot, but use another for the image, which also worked fine. However, I found that a little bit confusing because we had to be really careful which bit to use and when. I have enjoyed the part where we had to decide which sequence to use and the cutting. I found a little difficult to match the shots together, so the sequence looks like a whole logical bit and not just cuts. I also liked the idea that now I know more about how the films we watch are actually edit, which is really amazing.
