On Thursday, 27th in my AICE Media Studies class, I continued to edit my film. However, neither of my group mates had come to school that day. So, I ended up working on it alone for the class period. The night prior, I had spent some time sorting through the footage and finding the best shots. I put them all in a separate folder on my SD card so that I could easily move then to the school computers. As a result, I was able to save a lot of time since I didn’t have to waste class time to sort the footage. While I was sorting it, I also wrote down each scene and clip that I felt needed to be re shot. That way I could have the list with me when we plan to reshoot and ensure we don’t forget any scenes. I got on Pinnacle Studio, the editing software we use, and was able to continue editing right away in class without any problems. However, about halfway through the class the editing software stopped working. I tried closing the software and opening it again with no luck. I also tried to restart the computer, which also didn’t work.
Since it was not working and I didn’t want to waste time, I began looking for music to use on my film. I searched up copyright free music and went on the website where I had found my music for a previous project. I began looking through the songs for one that I felt would fit with the film. I wanted a more suspenseful song that builds up over time. I soon stumbled upon a song that I felt was perfect. I copied the song link and put it in a mp3 converter online. This would allow me to put it in Pinnacle Studio with the footage. I also moved the file to the SD card in case something happened and I needed a backup. Right before class ended, I checked out a camera and tripod to use for the filming we had planned for that weekend.
