Production Blog: Editing Day 1



 Today was the first day of editing. This is when we decided that Rohanna was going to be our editor. We made sure to give her all the tools needed and provide her with any assistance she may have needed. Due to her working we knew she wouldn’t be able to finish the entire thing in a day. That was the original plan.

We all got to take time and make sure that all our other parts of the project were done correctly. Now we are just awaiting our finally product. We got the permissions we needed for the music and songs. Sounds we used will be voiced over if needed. We prepared all the editing features we wanted to use that didn’t already come with the editing software.

Yes we choose to use it and it works wonderfully but sometimes a little extra was needed for a third party to achieve the goal we wanted. It was a long process but there were questions and answers to everything that was asked. No one was left out and no one was left behind. We all managed to get through and keep up with everything else that was going on for the final touches of the project. Rohanna, Idline and Nishayla make great partners.

When mistakes are made our way on dealing with the situations we’re handled with maturity leaving us all stress free and diligently working to succeed on this task at hand. We assured Rohanna that if it was to much that we could always help her edit and we hadn’t heard from her since she began the editing process. Seems she was really focused and ready to work.

This stems from people getting bullied, being left out, or physical & emotional abuse.
