Post production editing of the preliminary task

On Tuesday the 12th of October, we began editing our preliminary task in the media suite, working on the Mac Pros and using Final Cut Pro as our software.
The first thing we did was to save all of our files into a rush bin, which gets its name from the early days of film-making, when the lengths of film were stored in hanging bins. Once everything was in the rush bins, we trawled through all of our shots and chose the best ones that we would use, i.e. anything without laughing, swearing or other such mistakes. These shots were then put into the log bin, where we would copy them into the final clip. In this first session we managed to get my dramatic entrance into the room with the first exchange of dialogue. I was happy with this as I think we made more progress than the other groups. Below is a screenshot of the Final Cut Pro 7 software.
