Lets Actually Edit Now

     Ok, I have officially made my decision. I have officially decided to use Premiere Pro as my editing application mostly because of the less steep learning curve and the versatility of the app especially since my school has licenses to use Premiere Pro. In the end, DaVinci Resolve is more geared toward more time consuming, professional grade film editing and I only need something that I know how to use and has a lot of features that I can utilize. Premiere Pro offers a sweet spot between basic web editing software such as Microsoft Clipchamp or Adobe Express and professional editing software such as Resolve or Avid Media Composer. 

    Now with that choice being out of the way, I now begin the editing process. Here is a screenshot of me beginning to import a few of my clips into Premiere Pro:


    My plan goes as the editing process goes on, I will obviously have more clips to import and I will then start to combine all the clips together into one rough opening where I will then refine each and every clip after. That is my plan in very summarized form. More specifically, I will mostly be focusing on color grading and audio editing of certain clips during the whole entire editing process. The visuals and audio will probably be the most important aspect of the whole entire opening so it is very important that I dive into that as soon as possible during the entire process. As for my partner, he will be helping to edit the opening but because he does not fully know how to use Premiere Pro, I will either have the option to teach him some basics about Premiere Pro or he will have to edit separately on a different, more simplified application. Overall, the entire editing process should take no more than two weeks at the very most, but I believe that we can get editing done sooner so that we have time to research and produce our respective CCRs (I will make a post on the first question’s research for me soon). 

    Next post is relating to how my second group meeting went. Stay tuned for that!

    Wow, we have really came this far. That’s actually insane in my opinion, but anyways, here’s what I and my partner have been working for...
