Editing

The video was edited using mainly Adobe Premier Pro. This was because both me and Ryan had previously used this program in the past and plus the easy work flow it offers with the other adobe programs, such as Adobe After effects and Adobe Speedgrade. This saved us having to render the video over and over again when transferring the file between programs which we would have to do if we were using a program such as Final Cut Pro X. This saved us both time and memory, two things we needed to use wisely. 


Premier pro is a really good piece of software for editing. It allows us to easily sort and arrange the footage/files into "bins" to clarify the source so we know which camera we are looking at and where to find the audio etc. Using dual monitors it allowed us too watch either the source image or the output on a larger screen to determine whether it was right for the sequence (In focus, right colours etc). We then linked this with an after effects project, so that if we wanted to edit any one of the individual clips then we could send it into the after effects project and render directly back into the timeline. This was helpful was filmed some footage upside down using the steadi-cam so we could get closer to the floor. We then just reversed this in after effects and put it back into the timeline. 


The sound was edited mainly in logic pro, once pieced together it was then exported back into the timeline in premier pro.
