I have finally been able to complete my editing and finish my assignment. I had a couple of free lessons yesterday, so I was able to complete the editing throughout the day with the school laptop that I borrowed. At home, the only thing that I had to do was watch over the trailer again and make sure that everything was all good to submit. I ended up only adjusting the volume of the dialogue over the background music so that the viewer could hear it better, and at school I finished the colour correcting that I had left.
This has probably been the most difficult task yet, and I am really glad it's over. I think that the task itself was quite challenging due to the fact that it was a trailer and I found it really hard to make it non-linear and trailer-like. However, I also made it hard for myself by managing my time poorly and having a storyline that included so many characters. Having five characters made it really difficult as I had to rely on four other people to act in my film (only four because I acted as one character), nobody wanted to act, and it was hard to find times when they were free at the same time.
Overall, I had fun filming the trailer, and I tried some new things with the editing such as overlays which made Final Cut more fun to use. I can't wait until the next project as I think it will turn out a lot better than this assignment if I focus on my time management, plus other aspects including lighting, as I plan to.
