Screen Grabs of the Editing Process



When using Adobe Premiere Pro to edit our documentary, there were alot of things to learn as we had never properly used this software before. Once shown a couple of times how to edit certain things out it became very easy to edit our software how we wanted. It was easy to drag the clips we wanted and to cut rather then delete the parts we no longer needed, such as the questions asked by the interviewer as these needed to be edited out in order for our documentary to flow.




This shows how we edited the sound in our mobile phone documentary. When using the power gain tool this gives the music more of a build up, making the documentary flow more fluently. We also used this tool in order to fade our music out at the end. It was important to make sure that the music wasn't too loud so that the interviewee can still be heard, for this we simply used the "-" button and kept on adding to the number in order to make out music quieter.



This shows how we edited in our cutaways and how we made them overlap onto the next question so that there wasn't a big jump between each question. The red bar was used in order to drag it accross to the part which was relevant to edit or to which part we wanted to watch, we then just simply pressed play and continued to edit. Through using this software I feel that it has helped a great deal in increasing confidence for when we do our other documentary.
