We first started by going through each clip and deleting the one's that weren't great and had to be ruthless for the next process. The next stage was to pre-res each of our clips through MPEG-streamclip as we recorded on the Canon DSLR's. This was one of the most tedious and longest processes of the editing as we had a lot of clips!
Once the pro-resing was complete i started with the first edit by going through the clips and placed them onto the time line as they would appear in the film, without clipping them down too much, but removing the clapper board from the start of each of the clip.
I then moved on to cutting down the clips and neatened them up by removing the parts that we didn't need and sped up the opening shot of the city. I had to times this by around 7000% to be able to see the difference in the light, which left about a 12 second clip.
In total, including all of the clips that we wanted, i ended up with a 7 minute video so had to chop a lot out. I had to removed a lot of sections that i would have liked to have kept in if the time limit wasn't on the project. I then went on to colour and change the dream sequences to make them more dream like and to add transitions to smooth out some of the sharp cuts.
Once finished i handed over the final edit to the boys for them to add the sound on and complete it.
