Preliminary Task: Editing & Finished Product

On Tuesday we began the editing of the videos we shot. Many of the videos had to be deleted but luckily we did more than one shot for a lot of the parts we needed. For the editing I did most of the trimming of clips and placing them in order and Jacob finished off the end product to ensure that it looked good as he has experience with making and editing videos. Jacob also had the idea to turn the shot of Jack walking up the stairs into a jump cut, which was risky as it could have made the shot look faulty, but he managed to make it work well and give a great effect to our piece. We also used two action matches, one of Jack coming through the door and another of Jack putting the money down, although we already pre-planned this and recorded it we still needed to trim clips to make the action matches give a good continuity to the piece and not make have it out of time. I think with everyone's input we worked well to create a reasonably good first piece of work and it also shows how much we've learned in terms of camera angles and editing.
