WHAT HAPPENED TODAY
The exercise from last class (editing a film to make it seem like it's something else completely) progressed a lot today. The group gathered, and after reviewing the raw clips that we had, we agreed that we would split up, one pair looking for music and more importantly, sound effects, to overlay on top of the original audio. This was necessary because the original audio very much heavily implied it was a comedy, the soundtrack being upbeat and childish, the sound effects very obviously comedic. I'm not one hundred percent sure how it worked, exactly, but we decided it would be best to just do our own sound editing over it (save for the dialog, which we hope will co-operate if we fade it in and out at the right times). I compiled a list of sound effects we would be finding, while Kelly and Stephanie worked on putting together a rough cut. For some reason, they trimmed the clips (very tightly, I might add) first instead of putting together an assembly edit, but it seems if we just slow some of our clips down and throw in a lot of filters and transitions, it should go off without a hitch. Though we didn't finish our ordered rough cut, Stephanie will get them done while I cover all audio issues. The first half of the next class should be enough to put everything together, toss on some fancy titles and be just in time for screening.
IB LEARNER PROFILE
During our actual working times, that being the bulk of the class, being clear with communication was probably the most important skill as Hannah and I weren't left out completely. We offered our opinions and formed conclusions with the edits all as a group, to create a product that everybody could be satisfied with, and personally, I feel like judging from what we have so far, it would be fair game to say that despite the fact we don't have that much yet, the results are looking to be promising.
