Ups and Downs - Filming and Editing


During our process of filming, we found it difficult to stick with our original ideas as we had many challenges that came our way. For instance, we weren't allowed to use the toy gun anywhere outside as it would have been an instant disqualification for our whole group as it was see as breaking the law. So we then decided to film inside the college mimicking a warehouse in which Omar (Akbar) pull out the gun to shoot .

Our film begins with a flashback although by many it was seen as unclear due to the shots we had taken. Struggling to use all the clips we had to make our flashback was difficult as we had taken a numerous number of clips.

While editing we merged all the clips together to look like a flashback by using white fades, a black and white effect to represent the event happened in the past tense. Even though it had taken many hours during lesson,after college hours and in our spare time we managed to finish a day before the deadline .

We had learnt new things in our lessons about filming and editing , which would personally help me (Janet) in future as i would want to peruse a career involving editing skills.Timing and organisation are one of the most important things we had to keep track of as a load of work began to build up each week .
