After many weeks of filming editing and tweeking we have come to a point where we as a group are happy with the product we have produced. We have each taken on different roles within our group including Cameo taking on the "Director" role, Sabrina taking on the "Producer" role and myself taking on the "Editor" role. The whole process was a great learning curve as we had to shoot then re-shoot and edit then re-edit. These actions were due to development of ideas, increased understanding of equipment, resources and software.
One thing I found particularly interesting during editing the trailer was how key editing in time with your sound clip is. By editing in time with the soundtrack you can create a mood appropriate for the genre of the trailer.
Our group made the mistake of initially editing the footage together without a sound clip. when we then added our desired sound, it did not sit correctly with the cuts between clips. As editor, I made the decision to completely re-make the trailer in terms of its structure by starting with the sound and cutting the clips into specific segments to match with the sound.
