Editing Blog - Getting things right

 

After all of my scenes were aligned and in order where they needed to be. I began trimming and cutting the sound in each scene. I cut the sound from each scene because I wanted to add a voiceover in my commercial. But before I added in the voiceover, I cut down each scene in the way I felt was right. For example, in the first scene I cut out the first half. This was done because it eventually made the whole commercial longer then needed. In the second scene, with the movement of an up close tilt at a canted angle. I also slowed down the speed to give a small dramatic effect. After this scene I added a transition. This transition captured the end of scene two and the beginning of scene three. Between the third, fourth, and fifth scene, I didn't do much editing other than trimming the scenes down. Just as the first scene, in the last scene I had to cut out the first halve. It seemed unnecessary to be in the commercial. Although I trimmed the first halve out. In the second halve I slowed down the speed of the scene. To capture the whole shot of the pan video. While doing this I also added a fade out transition to signify the ending of the commercial. After all the editing I was able to add in the voiceover. The editing app that I used provided different sets of voices and all I had to do was type up what I wanted it to say. Editing is still something new to me but with this project it helped with my editing skills.
