Overcoming Difficulties- Last Editing Session

  • We needed to complete all tasks to the best standards, but we were on a limited time schedule, as we were working to the deadline, and we still had to complete both title credits and sound.
  • We had to change the title sequence colour, the original shade of light pink was not visible on a light background. We then changed the colour to a  darker pink, so it would show up better. 
  • After feedback on our titles, we realised that in order to stick to the conventions of a high school drama, we couldn't place the title of the film as the end. We had to move the title of the film from the end to the middle as it looked like a trailer.
  • Sound was difficult because we could find the right sound we wanted to compliment the mood of the character, but also stick to conventions of the up beat sound in high school dramas. We then decided that to save time we would use sound cloud to create our song, but it turned out that Sound Cloud had temporarily been blocked for download. It was a major setback, but we were able to find two instrumentals that complimented each other, sounding similar to moment for life and love yourz, which we then dragged into garage band to add our foley sounds.
  • We transferred the sound to garage band and then we had to transfer it to final cut pro after we finished editing it. We then realized some titles weren't in frame so we went through them all in place.
