Editing Part 1

Today, we used Flim the Flimmore app. This is the same app we used for our music video. I really like this app because it's easy to use. There are also so many great effects, the sounds, the transitions, and how easy it is to cut and add scenes. There was also music which we discovered today which means we don't have to worry about getting copywrited. The main downside to the app is that we have to pay for it which is a boomer. But quality work doesn't come cheap. 

First, we put all the videos in chronological order. However, we ended up having to add them one at a time so we could add the takes we thought were the best. While recording we knew some of our actors were doing a lot of unnecessary talking in the shots but editing made us realize just how much extra talking they were doing. Then we put the scenes we liked the best in chronological order. We began discussing some issues and making adjustments. First, we made adjustments to the time cut cutting some scenes that weren't exactly important. Before this our time was 2:07. After making some cuts the length was exactly 2 minutes which is perfect because our video can't go over 2 minutes. After that, we began looking for music. As stated before there is some in the app but I first started looking on YouTube for sounds/ music. The problem with that was the risk of our film being flagged for copyright. That's when we began looking in the application for extra sounds we could use for free. For a while, we couldn't find a good sound. They were either boring or sounded like they were trying too hard (like the sound was for a Disney children's movie). Nothing was just right. Until...
