Editing Our First Shots...

Initial Work...We imported the footage of our first

filming session in Camden onto the Macs recently.

The shots for our documentary which we had filmed were trials and initial ideas which we are still discussing whether to use for our final task, or upload onto our blogs separately as testers.

Most of the work we filmed, if used in our main task, will be snippet sections to go in between the interviews or our core documentary information.

One of our first ideas was to simply walk around the market area in Camden with the camera running just to get a feel of the area.

We filmed around 15minutes of footage, and did this around three times with different parts of the area.

We edited down the footage by converting the speed of the shot up to 900%. This reduced the length of the clip from 15minutes to around 30 seconds.

We did this because the fast moving pace will appeal to our younger audience and conveys the excitement and buzz of life in Camden Town.

We then edited the colours of the footage so that the saturation was increased to 175%.

We wanted the footage to look vibrant and exciting however, subtle, so that it wasn’t immediately obvious to the viewer and would appear realistic.

This again links in with our younger target audience and the further edits we made to the footage.

Editing colour of footage...

Music...We have been trying

out various songs and music styles to go with our initial ideas for our documentary and this opening section.•We want something that is vibrant and sets the

scene perfectly for our documentary style, tying in with our location.•We intend to use either dubstep or drum and bass to go with the fast paced and colourfully edited footage for our documentary.

We started to rearrange all the footage we have filmed, putting it into a separate project folder which we can expand on when we film our next sections.

We added transitions between some of the shots so it would run smoother and separate footage would blend professionally.
