Editing our artefact

Once our group successfully uploaded our artefact, we then had edit our footage to create a smooth piece that fit the criteria. We decided to split the artefact into three sections (as there were 3 of us in the group) and edit one section each, so that we could all get used to using the editing software and working on the Macs. We found that after some initial frustration and confusion. in the end the editing went very well and we soon got the hang of it and were able to achieve the effects that we wanted. We also managed to successfully edit two pieces of footage into one smooth, continous piece, for example when Alex walked through the door. Once the footage was edited, we experimented with opening credits and music to use in our piece. We were all very happy with our end result. However, after watching our piece several times (out of pride at our first successful artefact), we began to notice small things on which we could improve, and different ways we could have gone about filming our piece, for instance keeping the camera steadier, and different angles that would have worked better with our filming to make it more interesting. We will take all these things into consideration when creating our next piece.


Here is our final storyboard for our artefact :
