Editing

We uploaded the footage that we had at the moment so that we could start to edit it as much as we could before we got the rest of the footage.

There were also parts when the lighting was really bad and did not work for the film. Originally, we planned to use the light by the front door but when we came to film, it just wouldn't turn on so we had to try and find another way of producing the light for the shot. Looking at this shot, the lighting obviously didn't work effectively so we just had to cut this shot and re-film it another time when we had better lighting.

We made sure that we shot from lots of different camera angles so that we could choose from them which was best for the video.

There were a lot of bits which we needed to delete. A good example of this is when Rich decided that he wanted to propose to Annabel. Clearly we could not use this shot as it is not part of the video so we had to delete it.

At one point in the film, we had to cut a shot so that it was just a couple of seconds long, when we cut it we realised that there was only a very short bit of footage that we could actually used so we had to slow it right down. The problem we had with this was that there was someone walking in the background so when we slowed the clip down, it did not look right at all as it made her walk really slowly.

To solve this problem, we saved the clip as a still image and edited it in Photoshop so that we could erase the woman from the picture and then just use a still image for the shot instead. We used the clone tool in Photoshop to do this so that we could get the background right.
