Editing: Imovie

As I previously explained, Katelyn and I needed to restart all the editing. This was due to the error in Pinnacle Studios. Therefore, we chose to use Imovie. Imovie was familiar to both of us. It also was on our phones which meant we could work on it at home. This was a bonus because we had essentially already wasted multiple days with editing on Pinnacle Studios. The editing was quite simple. This is because we had already decided which takes we would use. This saved us a lot of time because we were able to import the chosen takes right away. Personally, the hardest part was the transitions. Specifically, the dissolve transitions were the hardest to get just right. To explain, on Pinnacle Studios you can adjust how long you want the dissolve transition to last. However, on Imovie this was not the case. Rather, there were only a few choices of pre-set lengths for the transition. This was extremely frustrating to me. Katelyn and I had spent such a long time  perfecting the transitions. Now we had to re-do them. At last, we finished the transitions and were ready to watch the whole video through. This step helped us realize how much we accomplished. I was able to be less frustrated by seeing how well Katelyn and I work together.
