First day editing

Today we began the editing process of our thriller. We basically just got the ball rolling by selecting all of the clips with the best shots that we were going to actually use. We then just put all the shots in order so that we could get a rough visual idea of how the sequence wood look, and then after that we just began to trim down some of the clips and really begin to edit.

There were a few things that we edited that we took some time to make a decision on, such as how long we should have the text message shown on screen, as it needs to be there just long enough so that the audience can easily read it, but not too long so that it feels like its been dragged out. Another clip we had to play around with was the shot of the clock as we had to figure out how long it should be shown for.

Today was a good start to our editing and I look forward to doing some more.
