One Minute Movie Reflection: Post-Production

What was a challenge you had during editing your movie?

Editing the movie was very frustrating for both of us. Just one of the challenges was the music, because the school computers did not let us plug in the ipod, so Vendela had to burn the songs onto a CD. Another was that we recorded the last scene on one of the video cameras and after we edited all of it and put it on the movie the next day we came to it there were a bunch of dig red Xs on those clips. We had to get Mr. Paul to upload it again. The next day the Xs were there again. Finally Mr. Paul told us that we had to use the same computer from before.

Did you have to rerecord some of your movie? If so why?

We did, but it turned out that we did not have to. When we were editing some of the first parts we filmed we imported them onto our project, but unfortunately we did not put all of it onto the actual move. When we came back to it the next day it wasn't there, or anywhere. After we rerecorded we found it again in the uploaded stuff, so our feeble attemps fell flat.

Did the movie come out according to the script?

Our movie went along the script quite nicely, although some of the places where we wanted to shoot were unavalible. We also did not have one of the very last pieces of the movie, as a result of technical difficulties.

Did the movie match the story board?

As I said before, some of our scenes did not take place in the setting we planned it out on, so the storyboard was switched around a little bit, even though we tried our best to keep it along the storyboard.

What challenge did you have finishing your movie?

After we completed it and made it into a movie file...none. Except when we were viewing the whole team's movies we had to move it into a different folder.

What advice would you give to another young movie maker?

I would tell them to be organized and to remeber to stay with the same computer! Also to stay focused on the project.
