Group - Editing Update

We got off to a slow start with editing, as we found our footage was too high a quality for Adobe Premier to handle, as we needed to run 10 tracks at a time. This left us unable to edit performance footage for a few weeks, while the school technicians figured out what to do with our group.

We spent our time working on Royal Blood digipaks and advertisements, and editing our narrative shots on Premiere.

We have now moved all our footage to a specialised machine with an improved graphics card, which can handle our footage with up to 15 tracks. We are also now using DaVinci Resolve as opposed to Premiere. This has taken a little bit of getting used to but we are starting to appreciate the benefits of the software, like being able to mute channels while we cut out the unwanted bits of each performance track.

As of today we have now started editing out performance footage, and are making progress on getting a finalised performance track before overlaying our narrative footage, which needs to be converted into .xml through Premiere Pro to be compatible with Resolve.
