Improving My Editing Ability!

Using The Adobe Editing Software

Adobe Premiere Pro
My own personal target of late in our media lessons has been to work on my editing skills. Therefore, I've taken it upon myself to put myself forward to participate in editing recently, inserting the footage we filmed recently at Jacob's house. Theres certainly an emphasis on teamwork within our group: as you will have read in my last post, Adobe Premiere Pro isn't my favoured editing software, but Melissa has been able to help me out with any qualms I've had with the software and so in this sense, I feel as though with this help I've been able to improve my editng ability. Having said that, none of us have had any prior experience to the Adobe Premiere Pro; in fact, we have faced difficulties at some points with intercutting footage, and reducing the diegetic volume on our footage. However, with the assistance of our teachers (and the ever-helpful internet), I feel as though we are getting closer to a product we are happy with. This work has truly made me a more enlightened editor, and this practice will make me more confident, not only with the work we're currently doing, but with my studies in the future.
