Final Editing

The coronavirus outbreak has truly put a damper in our film production quality. We are unable to film and edit like we want to due to social distancing and recommended quarantines. Our first step to solve the problem is to do a google search for free editing software. The first one we found was eazyphotoeditor.com. The advantage is that it will do video. The disadvantage was that sound could not be added to the video.  The next software was iskysoft.us. This program was great if we wanted to add a lot of effects. It wasn't so great because it was a free trial with a credit card guarantee. One member of our group suggested using iMovie editor on our apple phones. The technology is super easy to use and to manipulate clips. The problem was that once edited we had to screen record on our phones. We could then export the video as an MP4. Though a workable option we decided to go with an adobe editor that came with a computer. This program had contrast and lighting control. We were able to lighten some of the interior car scenes with this program. After they were lightened we were able to edit those scenes into the film. Our group has had to use email to pass around the file since we can not use airdrop or other technology.  After reviewing the emailed movies our groups thinks we have a solid product. The final cut included the titles we were missing, The movie is ready to turn into Cambridge.
