Monday was the first day of editing and I would say I was successful enough for a first day. We are using Premiere Pro on Adobe Creative Cloud to edit. We tried sharing a team project so we can all work in the same workspace but for some reason I couldn't see any of the footage Sophia imported or any of the work she as doing. Sophia had the idea to section out the footage and we edit our respective sections in a different project and combine all the footage together in a team project. I got assigned the morning sequence with the alarm clock and Alejandra getting up and getting ready.
I realized while I was editing that we have to include the opening credits so I had to include while editing my footage. We decided to change the name of our film opening from "Beautiful Life" to "Off Script", which I feel matches the plot better. I found that coming of age films use handwritten font for their opening credits, and I found one on Adobe called "Ink Free" that matches the handwritten look I was going for. We decided to use transitions for the opening sequence and some cuts during Alejandra's getting ready sequence. The film opening looks much better because of the transitions and the credits look less awkward and flow smoother. I took it upon myself to name the production studio, A.M. Studios (AICE Media Studios).
We decided that instead of a time lapse of the sun rising we would just use an establishing shot of Sophia's house to be Alejandra's house. Sophia will have to get it tomorrow morning and send it to me so I can include it in the beginning of my clip. I am concerned that we will have to scrap some of the footage and the scenes because the morning scenes and opening credits are already a minute and 2 seconds. Once Gaby and Sophia finish editing their parts we will have to see if it goes above 2 minutes and if it does we will have to decide which scenes to cut to make the time.
