Educating Katie 1st Edit

Evaluation of our first edit-

The first obstacle we came across when filming for our film opening, happened to be that our filming was lost due to difficulty with technology. This happened due to the fact that we used our home camera for the first filming and that we had some problems with the camera. We found that we had lost all of the filming that we had already done and we had to re-film all of the shots. This made us learn to back-up the shots after every filming session due to the fact that it could get lost again. Saving it twice on two computers allowed us to ensure that we would never lose the shoots again.

Once we had finished editing our first edit of 'Educating Katie' we found that the film opening was too short and that we would have to make up some more shots to have the acceptable time for our time opening. This was because we hadn't planned our story board 100% successfully and found that some shots were shorter than we had planned for them to be.

Lastly, we found that the music used wasn't acceptable for the film opening either as it was a copyrighted popular music track. This stumped us massively as we through that the track chosen was perfect for our film opening, but after changing it and looking further into other tracks we found that we could have a changed, un-copyrighted version of the track which would be suitable for our film opening. 

We found that our titles had not been planned very well. We noticed this when re-editing and watching over that we had not ordered the titles in the way we had planned too and also that we had included two "produced by" titles. This is not what we had planned to do and meant that we would have to reorder the titles and even some shots.
