1) Importing footage
I performed this by putting the SD card in a card reader and importing the footage onto the 'D' drive, after creating folders for our project and further folders for separate scenes and days of filming.
2) Evaluating clips
As a group, we evaluated all our footage and kept the best take of each shot, as we performed each shot numerous times.
3) Timeline editing
After this, I took a primary role throughout the week in dragging clips onto the timeline on Premiere Elements 9.0, using the animatic to determine the start and end point of each scene, and using the trim and scissors tool to intercut footage. I ensured that footage was cut to the beat of the song to ensure the relationship between visuals and sound is amplifying, and that cuts occur on beats.
4) Slow motion
As we filmed some of our shots at 60fps, by going into 'project' I brought these clips down to 25fps. This achieved a very proficient slow-motion effect for the running scenes.
5) Letterboxing and saturation
We began experimenting with letterboxing and saturation on Premiere, deciding we loved the cinematic feel it adds to the footage. We have applied letterboxing to the clips, but are going to perform colour grading in a different program, such as DaVinci Resolve, as Premiere is not a good editing tool with regards to proficient colour alteration.
