Editing (Preparing for our rough cut)

When we where capturing our footage we occurred a number of problems, we tried on numerous occasions to upload our footage. But the same error appeared over and over the message said Media Offline. To try and resolve this we turned off the computer and restarted it. As this was unsuccessful we asked our teacher what the problem was, we played about with the setting and eventually we where able to fix the problem. However if this problem was to occur again we would not be able to fix it as we are unsure how we fixed it in the first place.

Although this problem happened we where still able to get some good editing done, we where able to create a tense atmosphere, by using snappy transitions which is usually used in horror trailers and we used blackouts and included a variety of shots involving the killer.However I do not feel like we had enough variety of shots that included the victims. Although we had a number of good shots, we had not allocated enough time for editing. Jamie was unable to help edit due to other commitments such as work and other school lessons. So it was up to myself and Lyle to put the shots together and create a respectable film trailer to show to the class. Although we have a rough cut prepared it still needs a lot of work before it is up to the standard that we want it to be at.
