Editing

We started off our editing by uploading everything we had off both cameras and deciding what we wanted and what we didn't want, we didnt use quite a lot of footage that we filmed, this was because the same scenes were filmed on more than one occasion, to ensure that we had the best take of it, meaning that once they were all put together everything that was filmed will look good within our clip, and all that was needed is some good editing. Howevere before hand we did come across the problem that the footage on James' camera did not safe to a correct software in whcih meant that it could be used in school, and he was therefore kind enough to take it home and use a software converter so that we could continue to edit successfully over the next few lessons. The software that all the footage was used in was Adobe cs4 premiur pro, as none of us had ever used this software before it took a while to begin with in order for us to get used to it and be able to make the most of the software. James had a lot of control over the mouse when it came to editing, however input was given from everyone in the group, i came up with the idea of possibly editing some of our high angle footage on James' camera, to make it in the style of a CCTV camera, this way it made it more realistic. After getting the hang of the editing software, it no longer seemed as difficult to use as i originally thought, howvere i do feel as though i could have had a little more control over the mouse when it came to actually editing rather than just giving input.
