Editing Software

To edit our material we used 'Sony Vegas movie studio HD platinum 11.0'.

When we first started using the software we had a few issues. We had difficulty cutting shots and trimming them where we wanted. After some time spent and some trial and error we figured out how to effectivley and easily cut shots down and trim specific moments. Our original footage lasted over three minutes but we were able to cut it down to just over two minutes. We did this to make our opening more fast paced and to the point. This is similar to other Rom-Com openings as they tend to be past paced with quick cuts. After we had finished editing our material we had a problem with it playing all the shots edited together. The shots would however play without them being part of the edited version. There was no sound however on these single shots. We then rendered the film and after that it played as one edited video and allowed the sound to play. We still need to edit the soundtrack we have added (These love songs dont make sense - The Vindickers) so that it can be as effective as possible but doesnt interupt the dialogue form the shots. We also need to add titles and for that we will use a website called 'dafont.com'. This website allows us to download interesting and different font styles to provide us with a wide range to pick from.
