Editing difficulties - again

We just attempted to show Mr. Ford our video and the computer froze. We will continue to stress our frustration of these computers until we have finished our music video to a standard we are happy with.

More editing difficulties

Once again we have been sat here waiting for the computers to load for a substancial part of the lesson. We have also been coming in in our free's to basically sit around and wait for the computers to load. We have had a lot of technical help yet it still doesn't have seem to solve the issue of the painfully slow computers. This has definatley been a restriction to our progress as we literally cannot do anything until premier elements decides it wants to work.
An example of this would be we have been in this lesson since 12:25 and it is 12:51 and premier elements has only just began to work. This is putting unnecisary stress on us considering the deadline is tomorrow. It is unfair as there is nothing we can do as we have done all of our filming and have the time to edit which is just being used up by waiting for the computers to load.

Editing Difficulties.

Yet again, reminiscing on our draft, the computer seems determined not to let us start. So far Adobe Premiere has frozen and shut down five times- everytime we go to save progress. However, we are trying to save it elsewhere which does seem to be helping for the time being.

Also the computer keeps hiding folders when we click on them, and they move up and down flickering meaning it is near impossible to select anything. We have only managed to get eight clips loaded onto our project so far and this has been throughout a combination of three lessons.

We hope to overcome these issues soon with some IT support.

Editing Progress

After spending two hours trying to do so I finally got the footage onto the computers at school. It was an extremely lengthy process due to the school computers being ridiculously difficult to work if you aren't given any assistance. An issue we will have to overcome with the editing is that the computers uploaded the shots in a random order so we will have to watch them all and label them all before uploading them to preimer elements.
When the clips were finally uploaded to the computer I watched them all to check we weren't missing any. I was impressed by the quality and we only need to edit the lighting on a few clips. Otherwise I was impressed and don't think we will have any problems with the quality.

Wreckin Bar Animatic

This is our final animatic video. This was completed just before editing began so it gave us a pretty good insight to the timings of our music video which weren't completely accurate on our storyboard.

New Storyboard

Here is the new storyboard that we created to help us make our new video. It was more thorough than our last attempt as I had previously gone listened to the song getting the timings for each line meaning that the storyboard covers all of the song and doesn't miss any out like our last attempt did in a few places.

Below are the ideas we put down before hand so that we could complete a better storyboard:

Equipment

This was the same model of camera that we used to film all of our shots. It was particularly good quality so we are optimistic that our video will look as good as we possible can make it.

We used a tripod to make our shots stable to maximise our shots looking more proffessional. We also found it helpful when avoiding the camera looking handheld.

We used our iPhones to communicate with each other when organising meeting up for filmings. We also took pictures of each other when filming using our iphones.
