Editing Preliminary Investigation

Editing 

 In our first editing lesson we learned the basics of Adobe Premiere.
We learned how to make new "bins" and "rushes" to organize the raw footage filmed. we then learned how to place the information onto a timeline and we learned how to use various tools on the program such as Trim Handles, Blade and In / Out Points and how to cut to make a clean continuity edit.
 In our second lesson of editing we continued working on cutting and piecing together the footage of the preliminary investigation shoot, ensuring all the sound matched the action and the switching between shots was clean and the continuity worked between shots.

I felt that within our editing group we had a good combination of people as i think members of the group were better than others at different aspects of the editing which made it easier to contribute abilities to do the different tasks. I felt that I was stronger at choosing the angles to use for each shot. I think I need to work on the physical aspect of the piecing together on the timeline of the shots. I think towards the end of the task I improved my skills of the timeline editing but there is definitely room for improvement because I don't think i completely got the hang of it.
