Bringing footage to life!

 Hey everyone this is Hunter Pangia signing in and welcome back to another blog. In today's blog, I will be talking about the editing process that I and Robert have been working on. As I mentioned it was just me and Robert indeed working on it because he and I were the only people who are putting effort into this marvelous final task. The wifi was pretty slow so it took a while to load all of the clips into Roberts editing software. After the clips were transferred the editing process began. Robert is very tech-savvy so he was able to put all of the clips together. I on the other hand used the knowledge that I know from him to assist him to the best of my ability. I made sure that Robert recorded a short scene and a long scene so time could be managed accordingly. I only have 2 minutes for the opening sequence and it was important for me to not make the same mistake that I made last time. In my last project which was my music video, I over-recorded and had to cut clips by a lot in order to fit the video in. The main thing I did with Robert was chosen which clips were good to fit into the video. I had a lot of options, so I had to keep moving clips around. A few fades were added as a transition. The main goal was to put all of the clips in the right order at the right time and length. Doing this would allow us to just add all of the touches, transitions, and title designs. For the title designs the color may have to change here and there depending on the color of the object it will be contrasting on. This is why I'm making sure all of the clips are set so I can decide what needs white text and what needs black, etc. A lot of cool transitions and action matches were executed perfectly. For example, when I was wrapping my hands the camera zoomed in on my black shirt and transitioned to the black floor, with a zooming-out shot of me doing pushups. I thought that was really cool. I ended up wrapping up the final two scenes to call it a day. I'm excited for the next time I edit and you'll likely be hearing about the finished product in the next blog.
