Film Progress Post

We have been using Premier Pro throughout the editing process and we have learnt how to use everything needed for editing our film including different tools and other techniques.

Tools:

 Razor Tool- This tool is used for cutting a clis, or multiple clips, into two seperate ones.


Track Select Tool- This moves all the clips to any place all at the same time so that you dont have to move them individually.

Rate Stretch Tool- Changes the duration of a clip, stretches it out and speeds it up.


I have also learnt how to render on Premier Pro. To do this you highlight the part you want to render and click on 'Sequence' and then 'render effects in work area.' If you want to render the whole scene then you press 'render entire work area.'  You have to render your timeline when a part of it is red because it makes the scene run fluently and smooth and not look jumpy. Once you have rendered a part it will go green, so then you know you don't have to render it again.

Problems we have faced:

During our editing process we have had to record sounds around Sixth Form due to us not being able to use the sound in the background of the clips as we talked over most of the clips and one of our actors left being we filmed their sound. This proved to be difficult as the voice recorder was very sensitive and picked up extra background noises, so a lot of the clips we couldnt use. We however solved this issue by using the camera mic to record the sounds as it isn't as sensitive.
