Post Production - Preliminary Film

Finally to finish of our film we had to upload and edit all of the raw footage. We had a few problems with this to begin with becasuse at first we didn't have enough room on our network to save the files so we had to use an external hard drive. The next problem we had was that the footage wouldn't upload to the computer, so this wasted a considerable amount of time and cause us to fall behind slightly with our work. Once this was done things became a bit easier. I found that it was alot harder to edit the footage into the originally planned way because there were limitations with the footage. Then editing an audio track to it caused a bit of problem because it was alot harder to edit the audio track perfectly than i had previously hoped.

All in all i believe the task went quite well. We had a couple of problems, but managed to sort them all out eventually. There were a couple of continuity erros however, like as he opens the door there is alot of noise and then when he walks through the dorr it's silent. There is also an error with the editing where the video jumps as he walks round the corner. This was due to having a slow computer that wasn't very accurate with editing.

Next time i will make sure that we use a faster computer to edit so we don't have errors and i will use a voice over so that we don't have the continuity error with sound. I will also use my own camera because this will reduce the risk of uploading videos not working.

Final Product
