Editing the Master Shot Sequence (Blog #8)

On the previous Sunday, my group and I filmed for our current Master Shot narrative project. The next step in the project is to edit everything together. While I, the sound editor, am syncing up all the audio, the director and DP made a rough cut to see the sequence play out. While we did match our storyboards, perfectly, the sequence played out oddly. After swapping out a few shots, the video started fitting together. 

We decided that the final cut of our project will not need any color correction done. Not even saturating the colors to make the image 'pop'. During the filming, we got the lighting just right and the raw image looks good as is. 

For sound, right now I just have to finish syncing the audio. Then my group and I will be getting some extra noises. Mostly ADR of people talking to make the environment of the scene seem like a restaurant. Then some foley sound effects to add in later. Finally, Jacob, the director, found a great soundtrack to play over the sequence. 

The editing process has gone smoothly, so far. Aside from a few shots that are a little out of focus, everything else is fitting together nicely.
