Editing The New Footage













Once I had collected all of the footage that I needed I uploaded it onto the computer. To edit my footage I used Adobe Premiere Elements 1.0 as it includes more effects which will make my overall video appear more professional. I started by cutting all my footage up into the sections that I had filmed, so that it was easier to work with. I then put the shots I wanted into the order similar to the plan of my storyboard.



Once it was in order I had to cut it all down as it was much longer than the song. I also wanted to put effects into my video to help the shots blend together better. I used many different effects within the video, and I tried to use one's which linked well with the song and the actual footage. Some of the effects that I used were cross zoom, where it zoomed into the middle of the shot and then back out onto the other shot, a roll away to change from one setting to another, a dip to black on every beat of the music for the first 30 seconds and a cross dissolve going from the hand tapping on the wheel to the car driving along the road. I also think that the way that I edited the footage helps to link the shots together and makes it easier to see the link with the visual and the sound of the music.
