Editing Footage 1

I have had to prepare a prototype of my project for my tutors.  Basically its a mock webpage with a number of components i.e. working navigation, excerpt for the film.  It’s basically to show that I’m actually doing some work.  I’ve done it but I had to get in and about the editing of the footage I already have.  I have been ill the last two weeks after catching a bug from my son so the second part of the film has yet to be captured on camera.  I will be doing this tomorrow and Friday.  It was great to start editing though.  I had so much raw footage that it eat away at the amount of space I had on my iMac.  I’ve cut the footage from about 3 hours to 10 minutes so far.  There are still other bits I would like to have so I will continue with it after college today and I’m back at home.  I’m using iMovie on the iMac and it’s just simply fantastic.  Easy to use with lots of extra features.  I’ve never made a film before but this programme is practically idiot proof if I can use it.  I watched the 10 minutes from start to finish this morning and I’m well impressed so far.  Just the motivation I need to get cracking on with it.
