Sound Editing (diagetic sound)

   Now, this is the hardest part of editing in my opinion. The microphone on the camera we use is poor so we used and external microphone that recorded the sound at the same as filming shots. This is good as the sound quality is 100% better, but it is incredibly difficult as you then have to cut the sound and fit it over the shots so it fully flows.

   We started in the same way as the action shots: by going through them to find the best ones as we recorded things for too long or not at all. Then we imported them into Adobe to start editing.

   Then the hard bit started, we had to now cut them down. This job took around 5 hours to do. We started by matching up the sounds to the shots. Then we started to cut them down and have the sound match tot he action. This was the hardest thing to do. We did this to all the shots. This meant all we had left to do was to add in the non-diagetic sound and music.
