Editing for music video

After recording our music video, we began our editing. We already had a basic plan of what we wanted to edit so we followed our plan. To begin we did all the basics like importing and cuting the clips so everything transitioned smoothly. Some of the scenes were filmed on my sister's phone so, to import it, we airdropped it. We filmed on her phone so we were able to get high quality slow-motion shots. For editing the party room scenes, we wanted to make it look like more of a party so we added an effect which fit in with the theme of pop music videos.
We continued to add more transitions between each scene and cut out excess parts to shorten the video's time. Some parts were either slowed down or sped up to fit in with the speed of the song. For one of our final shots, we dis a wide shot of me of me lip synching a day of the week then me moving a few feet and saying the next day of the week. To make the scene come together, we had to crop all of the shots together. This process took around 15 minutes. In the end, there was a shot of 7 different versions of me saying the seven days of the week.
A portion of the editing process which took a surprisingly extensive amount of time was actually importing the clips into our editing software. First we had to find the one that we wanted to use. Then, we had to name and save it along with waiting for it to load onto the software.
