The editing process started off difficult, but certainly got a little easier as I moved along. After my clips were organized, I began to add different effects to my movie. I added a title bar with Mel's name, title pages stating the questions that I had asked her, a credit page and non-text transitions. Additionally, I edited my clips down to eliminate me asking Mel a question, so that I would not be too repetitive. Once all of my editing was complete, I saved the movie as a movie file, so that I could upload it to YouTube and post it to my blog. I am looking forward to repeating this exercise so that I can practice the skills that I have just started using.
The three videos that are embedded into the blog show the three different stages of the editing process. The first video is just the raw footage of all that was taped in my interview. No editing was done and no slide transitions, titles or credits were added. My second video includes the majority of my editing, including the clip-cutting, transitions, titles and credits. My third and final video includes some last-minute editing touches and the final required element: the non-text slide transition from the introduction to the start of the interview. This project certainly made me realize all of the technical work that is required to put a good movie together...and this is just the beginning!
