Diary of editing - Day 8 ~ Luke Leadbetter


Today was to be frank, pretty awesome. Will and myself got a lot done during the lesson, and then also after school. During the lessonwe continued to insert clips and make subclips from the original sequences, and also finding new effects. We stumbled upon an effect called 'bloom', which really gives the disco lighting in the shots that bit more of a kick, and making the lights on the piano look really effective. At the end of the lesson, Will left with the promise of coming back. I continued to edit for an hour, filling in large gaps and creating some of the more complex scenes, such as a scene near the end where a spinning shot must be continually looped. When Will did, as by his word, return an hour later, we added cool looking effects and blurred the whole thing to soften the edges and remove some of the noise that came with filming with a not-so-great camera. We continued to power on through the editing, capturing, placing and editing clips for another two hours, until we were eventually thrown out at six 'o' clock by the caretaker. So overall a good time spent editing, with a lot done, hopefully we'll be done very soon!
