Where we are at...

Today we edited again on our short film and so far we have:

• Put all the footage on to final cut pro
• Added some music
• Added video transition
• Cropped and cut shots
• Started to edit the colour in some shots
• Added some of the sound from the microphones

However, we are continuing to edit the small details of our film. I we successfully pay close attention to detail I feel we will have a more successful final film as all the shots will fit together smoothly and will look very professional-like. To get this overall finish this means that we will have to continue to edit well and do this in and out of lessons. 

Tasks we need to do towards editing:

• Finish colour alterations and make sure that they work together with the shots either side
• Add foleys where necessary
• Continue to add the sound from the microphones on to the footage
• Adjust the sound levels throughout
• Add a non-diegetic soundtrack in certain scenes *see note* (the restaurant and at the end)
• Continue to edit in detail

After we have done this we will hopefully have a successful end product.

Non- Diegetic Soundtrack - NOTE

For a while we have been thinking about asking someone to create a soundtrack for our film: this is because the music on the royalty free websites do not suit our film. Therefore if we can find someone to help us with the music as it would fit more parallel with the film and I feel we would achieve better results with this method.
