Editing the footage

We are now coming to a close with the final project, I have been working on the digi-pack while Chris has been editing.
We've realised as the deadline draws closer that we have a lot of footage, but not good enough to put in the video, we have had problems with the Mac's at college, meaning it's very hard to edit at the moment, and seeing as we have to be finished soon, we're all quite stressed out. The frames keep 'dropping' meaning the footage isn't smooth and when you play it back there are pauses, and breaks, giving you an overall shoddy piece of work. Chris had done a lot of work in one lesson, but unfortunately the Mac failed to save what he had done, so we were back to where we were, Chris was able to re-do it all to the best of his ability, and I still think it looks great. Chris is doing a great job, as there is only him and I left of our group I think we've done considerately well. Luckily he can edit, I can't to save my life.

A lot of the footage we had shot was at the wrong angle, so predominately the footage we have used is of Jamie in the studio as we had the time, lighting, and no real hurry or distractions. Chris has synced up the footage to the music and it works so well.
All of the footage is raw, rough choppy but all in a good way, it really presents the song well, the Guitars are playing the introduction of the song, then band getting hyped for the performance this includes footage that we got from their Norwich gig when they are setting up and the trip we took there, and parts of band practice, as it's all short clips we need a lot of it to make it flow decently, and the finale which is again more of Jamie in the studio, which is also used throughout the beginning of the video.

It's lucky we filmed when we had because currently the band aren't getting on so well at the moment!!
