Comparing AS to A2; EDITING PROCESS

• Style of editing
Editing the videos in AS was easier, because there wasn't a lot of clips and the background music wasn't too hard to match the short film. In sense of cutting the clips to the right moment of the music, where the tension builds up, and the clip has to change.
However, with A2, there has to be the music that we have chosen. Because we have included performance in our video, it was a little bit harder and complicated to edit, as the lip syncing of our performers and the words on the song had to be in sync with each other in order to produce a video that's almost professional looking. Also, because we have chosen a slower song, our editing (cuts) have to be slower, or otherwise, it would look out of place, because the change of shots wouldn't match slow beats of the song.
One similarity on editing the short film and the video is that, we still used some effects such as slow motion and fades. We carried on using effects to add more texture and make our clips more interesting, and also to set the right mood of genre of the music and film.

• Complexity

• Time management
Time management was harder in A2 than in AS, as we had more filming, editing and blog work to do. Therefore we had to be more organized to balance things out. We each all had a copy of dates, to film, edit, and blog work to keep up to date.
However, in AS, time management was not as hard, because the deadline was further into the year, and we had more time for the production, including thinking of the short story.
One similarity between the two years, is that we all had dates of when to do the stuff, by doing so, it gave us a guideline and keep us on the track to meet our deadlines.
