Editing: Organizing

       To begin editing I organized all the shots in order. Then had to ensure that all the shots were the right length and included some filming speed changes. I then applied graphics overlay on top to give it the same feel as NIKE's commercials. I am also contemplating adding a grain overlay because a lot of the brands designs have that overlay and sticker clipart. All of this editing was done on a MacBook using the iMovie application. I had my sister help me with editing because I have a cast on. Having a cast prevents me from using the mouse because it is on my dominate hand. She gave me a fresh and new perspective. When all the shots were in it gave me to many seconds so, I had to cut it down. I also changed the default transition that is in between the shots from fade in to none. I had to cut some of the shots because they had some random things in the background that were not props. For example, I had a someone's shoes in the back and some shadows. I also zoomed in on some shots to get the right camera angles. Some of the time did not add up so I had to include a extra shot to make sure the time was correct. The good thing was that it was related with the scene before, it was a sort of continuation. I had to slow down the scene where it looks like a leaping of the camera. It gives a nice slow motion effect. The view it a numerous amount of time to make sure it does not look choppy. I still have to apply a music overlay and fix some shots still. Overall I made a good amount of progress and believe I can complete it with one more day of editing.
