Editing Blog: Titles and more !

Today in class we had another chance to start editing. We continued to edit our film and also made a plan. This plan was our plan of action on how we want to finish the film in an orderly fashion. We decided that if we did not finish today that we are going to have two of our group mates come during study hall to add transitions. Today we edited our film some more by adding new scenes. When we went over the film we seen that there were still some scenes missing. It turned out that when I sent the footage that I took from my phone it did not send properly. I originally used iCloud and the videos were sent using mail drop. The mail drop would not let my group member download the videos to the computer to insert them. This caused me to have to send the missing footage using Gmail in order for my group mate to get the footage and insert it into the editing software.

We also found music for the film as well. We found some suspenseful music that did not sound too scary and that did not sound too light. We looked for music that did not sound too scary because the film is not a scary film and we did not want to make it feel like that. We did not want it to be too light because we wanted the music to have the audience in a suspenseful mood. At first we did not know if the music was copyrighted. We figured it out by clicking on the publishers policy at the bottom and then reading it. It stated that if we were using the music for  paid advertisement then we would have to make sure to put where the music was from. It also stated that if we were using it for educational purposes or a school project then it would be fine for us to use. We had some trouble at first downloading the music through the youtube mp3 converter, a site used for downloading music from youtube. We got help from our peers showing us how to make sure that it is downloaded. After it downloaded we saved the music to the computer and added it to our movie file. We then decided that when the group mates go tomorrow during there study hall they will insert the music and then all of us will go over it on Monday.
