First Session of Editing

                 Earlier today we have started our first editing session of our music video that we shot early on in the previous week. We managed to make bullet points of what we've done during 1 hour of editing.
- First to start off with we reviewed every clip that we shoot the other week, which this process took us around 20 minutes or so. We did not look into every clip in detail but instead we skim through it just to see which shot is where, in case later we need to find them then we can easily identify where they are.
- After we looked to every clip we then decided which shots to use and which shots are not, we only decide about this roughly based on the act of our actors' performances. Good performance we would put into good bin and bad performances we would put into bad bin.
- Then to make it more convenience for us in the future, we decided to label different shots inside the video to help identify which shot is in which clip for example within the clip of the guitarist we would tag the bit where he solos then we would label it "guitar solo".
- Following, we create folder of characters in the good bin. The reason for this is to help us find the clip that we want much easier next time round for example if we want a shot of the DJ wearing a horse mask we would enter good bin then DJ following by looking up for the tag that says Horse mask.
               These process took us roughly 1 hours and 20 minutes to finished, which I think it's a time well-spent as it will help us to save significant amount of time next time we come to edit.

    Good work on your rough cut this week - don't forget to post screengarbs of this.
    You need to complete this account of the shoot day over the weekend please. You also need to blog the build and how you set up your studio shoot - comment on why you used green screen. Also please ensure that you blog what you have achieved in the editing suite in post-production so far. You are working towards a rough cut, but you need to keep a record of this and evaluate the process - this is the evidence needed for your blog.
