Editing has finally come to an end. We have worked very hard on the editing side of things. We decided to use a program called Sony Vegas Pro so we could have the video in 1080p at 60fps for the best quality.
Firstly we needed to make sure all of the clips were in chronological order, we didn't film this way so this took a while. Once we had all of the clips in order we needed to trim a few so it reached the 10% either way of the two minute limit. In total we were 0.5 seconds off the 10% over which was quite lucky. Next we needed to work on transitions and fades from each shot to have it in sync with the music, this by far took the longest out of everything we did. Keeping the music in sync with the video was an extremely frustrating task but was worth it in the end. One early viewer described getting "Goosebumps and a shiver down my spine" because of how well the music fits in with the video. The final parts were titles and colourisation. We wanted the movie to have a very cold appearance as the film itself is quite a sad one we needed to set the scene. Titles were quite difficult to fit in without filling a large amount of our film with them but we worked around this and put two on the same shot making things look a lot smoother.
