The Edale Project- Editing Rough Cut

Tuesday 1st November we began editing the rough cut for our Tutorial.
This edit proved a difficult job when trying to both string together a narrative and use nice shots especially as the weather had been so bad on the day of filming. However by following the ideas that myself and Mark had already discussed and referencing to the shot list we had created before hand we were able to get a range of different rushes that we could make sense with.
After putting the rushes onto Final Cut Pro we analysed each one and gave it an appropriate title that we could reference to whenever we needed a specific clip. This was a skill learnt within our production skills workshop on editing and came to a big advantage when creating an assembly of ordered clips later on in the day. We decided not to mess around with lighting on this rough cut as we may have needed to take away or add things after our tutorial. Altogether the editing was successful however if I had a chance to redo this project I would have made a more detailed shotlist and created a storyboard before the shooting day to have a constant reference to when trying to find good shots to use.
