Preliminary Editing 2

Today, for the next part of editing, we asked Oliver and Shaun to take control because they had not been involved directly in it yet. Firstly, they altered the length of the video and audio tracks so that the camera switched partway through dialouge. Next, they went throughthe entire audio and lowered it where it peaked at levels which may be damaging to the ears. Next, they took out the outtake as we all agreed that it was irrelevant. We then exported it to an AVI file and viewed it. We were confused at first as the player played it in 4:3 rather than the 16:9 that we filmed it it. We then realised that there was nothing wrong with the file and that 4:3 was the default viewing ratio for the player. We tried to upload it to Blogger but then realised that it exceeded the maximum capacity allowed by the site. We then re-exported it into a H.264 file and tried to upload it again. But when it finished, it was displayed strangely distorted and in negative. Instead we decided to upload it to YouTube and embed it into our blogs.
