Day 5 - Filming and Editing

In today's lesson we stayed as one big group, to get the last of the credits filmed to save time. This didn't take us long. Then we started to delete the frames that had hands in them or where they where blurry. We had to repeat some frames in the credits so the children watching would be able to read the name easyer.
We also re-arranged some of the extra things we had filmed to put them into the right place. We thought that doing this in i-stop would save time rather than going straight to final cut.
We then put the animation into final cut to be able to edit it if any was needed to be done and then add the sound effects and dialogue. The editing did take us longer then we thought it would, because we had not got rid of a frame that we didn't want so we had to cut it out of the film. We then added the dialogue under the movie which fit the movie quiet well and we only had to lengthen some of the frames to make the dialogue fit. Although, the dialogue did not fit where we expected as the frame was not long enough but we actually preferred it to have the establishing shot of the penguin (pauline) and then have the voice carry on narrating whilst she finds the map. It made it sound more fairytale like and so we diddnt change it to how we originally wanted it because we preferred it this way.
Over all a very successful lesson and we learnt that the editing takes longer than we thought and adding sound effects is also harder than we thought because of the different times.
