Today myself and Vic decided to edit the footage as we'd finished filming over 2 days.
To begin with we looked at the script and laid out all the clips we wanted in the correct order - apart from the interviews. I then went over them and cut and crop parts of the footage we didn't need. For the interviews we wanted to have them in an order where Vic is stood at the left third, then on the next interview he's on the right third so the footage doesn't look weird.
I also stabilised the still footage that we shot on the tripod as the wind rocked it a little however it wasn't too bad.
We also had to colour correct and colour match some footage as during the two shooting days it went sunny then cloudy and so on. So on the clip below I opened the colour match and matched it to a clip which wasn't too bright or dull, I then opened the colour balance and further edited the clip so that it wasn't too contrasted or had any random purple or pink hues to it.

We decided we wanted music over some clips throughout the video so we decided to find some royalty free music and visited www.incompetech.com
I looked for 'bouncy' music and it came up with a variety of sounds that I tested out. After discussing with Vic we came to the conclusion that the sound ''Carefree'' was perfect for our video. It was very exciting and wasn't too much and over the top for our video as it was a small promotional piece.
Overall the editing process was quite straight forward as the script guided us through how long each shot should be and the order we needed it to be in.
