Preliminary Post Production

After filming, our footage was uploaded onto the Final Cut Sever, by checking our edit proxy(a digital copy of original footage).
Continuity Editing: This is the style of editing that is used the most in narrative film and television today. The purpose of continuity editing is to make sure the scenes look seamless and make sure the sequence makes sense to the audience.
We started by looking through the shots and logging the appropriate shots from each angle as we went. We set up a Log Bin and put the selected shots into the Log Bin. Selecting the correct shots is important as we needed the sequence to flow. We then needed to find the shot that 'best fit' the scene we were trying to create. This meant looking at the shot list and checking how many shots of each type we needed and selecting the best ones out of the ones we had.
Organising our shots we had to then refer back to the storyboard, to see which shots went where and make sure that they appeared in order This was important as if the shots had appeared in any other order the storyline would not have made sense. The editing process in Final Cut was the final part of editing.
