Construction Post 8: My personal contribution to the Edit Sessions

I feel like I was very involved in the editing stage of the construction of our film opening. To begin with, I allocated the majority of the time I had free to working on and progressing the edit. This required me to be organised so that I was sure to attend every allocated editing session, and it also required me to have good communication skills as I was constantly in contact with my editing partner, Gabriel, to talk about when we were to be editing.

Following on from this, there were a few things that Gabriel and I assigned each other to do as we felt that it best suited our expertise, therefore making the editing process more efficient.

Gabriel  - creating the final/official titles and grading the shots

Josh (Me) - cutting shots in the sequence to match the soundtrack and editing for special shots such as editing  the 3 shot split screen using key frames

Looking back, I am very happy with my contribution to this stage of construction as I feel that I put in as much time and effort as possible, which contributed significantly to the success of our final product.
