editing

when editing we came across several problems. firstly, we realised we did not have enough footage as we had to edit out the retakes of scenes. this would not be a problem for larger scale productions as they would have time to re think their ideas, and possibly shoot more footage. secondly, when editing our sound track we came across a number of problems, as we had two very good pieces of music we didn't want to have either/or we wanted both, however this meant they would not be in sync. thirdly, 3 members of the group opted to have a mini black out between the production logo, main titles and the start of the sequence. they also wanted to have the music to cut out during this blackout. however i made a point that having both a blackout and no sound, is unprofessional and we would look armature. they stated it was a way to combat the synchronising of the tracks, however i pointed out that if we were to have the mini blackout we would need to have the music to fade out and start right back in, in order to keep the audience engaged throughout. this matter is still being addressed.
