When we first started to produce the film, all the editing work was new to both my partner and myself. As a result, we have both learnt so much. We used Adobe Premier Pro CS3 to edit our clips. We were taught how to use the programme and, as the process is quite repetitive, we both soon picked it up and we were able to edit the clips and put them all together. It was also very enjoyable to experiment with the special effects, and find what suited the genre of the film the best. It did however take some time to watch all the clips, then name them and decide which bits we wanted to keep. It was very helpful that we took lots of shots of the same scene.
When turning on the video recorder we waited 5 seconds before starting the action, and the space between our clips helped us with our editing in the end. Using the dolly to film the tracking shots was rather hard, as we kept rolling the tripod too far off the tracks! Soon we were able to get the hang of it, and the scene worked well. This is an example a dolly camera on the tracks, this is not the same one as we used, but this is very similar.
