Post Production Notes

After we finished collecting all the footage, we began importing all the footage onto our Macs on final cut pro. The route we used to store and transfer all the footage is through using an SD card which we recorded and saved all our footages on the camera.

Final cut pro is the software that we intend to use for editing all the footages and making our rushes video, draft and final edit.

After transferring all the footage, we began making our first project which is a rushes log. The rushes log contains all the unedited footage including the blooper scenes. Most of the scenes will not be in order in this step, it is just The purpose of making the rushes log is to help us decide what scenes would needed as well what scenes would not be needed. This would help as build a foundation to our short film which we can continue to build on later during our draft and final edit. The draft is the first version of the film, I will contain the footages in order with most of the bloopers or unneeded footage removed. It could contain some sound effects and transitions however these aspects have not been fully focused on yet as this is only a draft. The draft can be used to gain audience feedback, this would help later in editing as the audience feedback can help create new opportunities that could be made, that could not be made if we did not receive that feedback. From the audience perspective they'd be able to point out things that may stand out to actual audiences which means their opinions could be considered as value to the editing production as it gives accuracy on key areas that would possibly need to be focussed on.
