Getting started with editing!

  “Dearest gentle reader,” - Bridgerton 

It is official! Time to get the editing going... Before diving too deep on the editing part, I would like to talk about a few of the tools I will be using during this editing journey. First and foremost, the editing software that will be my best friend is Adobe Premiere Pro, I currently have the latest edition, which will be the one I will use to edit, (fun fact, I am Adobe Premiere certified). Other software that my group would be using for things such as the VFX effect would be Adobe After Effects and Blender. 


On the other hand, let me share some techniques that I used to stay organized in the process of editing. First thing I do is put all the footage into a folder and sort it by section to make my process easier. It is a technique that I have used in multiple projects and it usually works best for me. 


Here is how I divided the outside scenes into different sections to know where each thing would go in the timeline. For example, there are the car scenes and planet scenes which help me identify what each shot in those folders means. Another thing was making a folder for error shots and some extra scenes that we got, instead of deleting the bad scenes I put them in a folder to keep them there just in case and for the extra shots it just helps to know what is outside of our shot list and storyboards and whenever we need it is there to add it. 

Getting started in Adobe Premiere...

Step 1: Opening a project file 

Step 2: Importing the files into Premiere

Step 3: Start the project in the timeline


That's what I will share for now, more is coming sooner than you think!
