4 of 4 - Mobile Filmmaking - Editing

All right people. By this time you've shot your film and are now sitting down to plot out and edit your film.

Whether you are using a Mobile Phone or Personal Computer? The film is made in the edit. But no amount of editing can correct poor camera work. Be ruthless!

Here are a few things to remember when editing:

Upload all of your footage at once, and review it. When laying out your timeline, remember that it is necessary to advance the plot.

Your story needs to have a beginning a middle and an end, layout our films to make sure you have everything you need.

Do a rough cut or an assembly edit and try it out on an audience: Is the sound right? Are you using music? All music is subject to copyright though there are sources on the web where you can download copyright free themes or use others with proper credit and permissions, these include mobilejamfest.com, and creativecommons.org. If in doubt don't use it, respect others creative talent and they will respect yours.
