In The Sun - Remake



What did  I do when filming that helped edit?

  •  When filming a shot it is important to go through the whole scene and not just that clip as when it comes to edit it is better to have more footage then less so that you can make changes if some clips do not fit together.
  • With each scene in its location we filmed the clips in chronological  order so when choosing the clips to add when editing it made the footage easier to find and put in order.
  • When it came to lip syncing and timing for the dance moves ,we played the music when filming, this helped the actors/performers to stay in time with the song and make the lip syncing more realistic.
  • We used multiple types of equipment like a tripod or fig-rig which helped to make a steady adn well presented shot's, also we used a chair with wheels on it which became handy for doing tracks as they where more fluid then on foot.

What made editing harder due to filming technics?

  • Although we tried to film a bit extra each time we started to fall behind and take to long between each shot so we started to make them shorter to try and get all the clips in before we ran out of time.
  • As the day progressed on we started to become less organised and started to become less detailed in our shots and even missed out a couple, when editing this made it hard to fill in some gaps with repeats of others or having to make some clips longer.
  • I don't think anyone fully learned the clips they where filming or directing so when it came to film there was slight confusing on what shot it was whereas we should already know this.
  • Some shot's became out of frame during the shot was being filmed, this was due to tracking and the camera became hard to keep still or that our space for the performers to work in was to small so they slightly went out of frame to get this room.
WWW &  EBI
  • WWW- we created a good plan before hand that helped to sort out who was filming and directing what clip's so when it came to the day we knew who was doing what. EBI- However when the actually day came to film the plan soon became out of place and certain people didn't know what clips they where directing.
  • EBI- Time planning was a massive concern as we had to do an extra day to film because we ran out of time, this reduced our editing time.
  • WWW- Almost everyone found the editing rather easy and finished on the day we started even thou we had less time then we was originally supposed to have.
