Friday 22nd March.
After 3 days of editing, I exported my final edit of Reel Talk today.
Unexpectedly, the show was quite easy to edit after properly getting into it. I assumed because of the lagging throughout editing that this it would be a much longer process, however that was not the case. Although the footage was still slightly behind the audio, I just mainly followed the audio of the clips and made my cuts that way and it work out quite well.
As for the VTs, I added them in as I went along because I found that it would be easier this way instead of adding them in at the end and trying to separate the takes to the timings of the VT.
I did have some trouble editing take 5 though as I notice it was not transferring one of the hosts audio to the take, which made her audio a bit quieter however, I managed to fix this issue in the end. Other than this I didn’t experience any other problems while editing
To finish everything off, I added in all the graphics which were created by our graphics designer for the show. For example, the name tags for our hosts and guests, the transitions and the Reel Oscar winning movie titles.
Additionally I added in some royalty free music for the Reel Oscars to add more effect to it and that was about it.
After finalising everything I went to export the video, once it finished, I uploaded it onto YouTube.
