Editting and whatever rhymes with editing (Editing Blog)

 Today I began the long arduous process of editing. To begin, I had to fix one scene. Initially, I had tried to film the scene in darkness, however, that didn't work out so well. So, to solve this issue, I had decided to try to film in light and then just make it darker in post. While it ended up working out, it definitely took away from the scene a little bit. It is still somewhat noticeable that the scene takes place in bright light, but hopefully, that can be fixed with some more editing. However, this may simply be noticeable to me as the editor and not as noticeable to those seeing it for the first time. But for now, it is serviceable. Past that I began the work of darkening up the extra scenes. Through this, I had learned that I had gone almost exactly on time instead of over or under time with the recording. After that, I began slicing the videos. Slicing the videos in and of itself was a challenge. It took a lot of time and effort. But, I thankfully got it done in the end. My goals for tomorrow are to finish the splicing of the videos together with more natural transitions, finish darkening the scenes that need it and finish adding the music to the scene. Moreover, this project is going along swimmingly so far. I am in high spirits and have high hopes for the project. I think it will end very well. Though I still have about 3-4 more blogs left to do, the video, as it seems now, will be done by Friday. Though I'm not sure if I will still be happy with the final project. Due to the hardware limitations of being a school student with limited space and time, I didn't really have a good place to film and a good wardrobe to wear, unfortunately. Though I'm sure it will improve with time.
