3.1 Post-Production Introduction

The ins-and-outs of video editing & publishing.

Now, think!

• How comfortable do you feel with editing? Do you have the right tools to make it happen?

• About how long will your final film be (in minutes)?

• Do you have all of the shots you need? Is anything missing? If so, write it down, and record it before you edit more.

Practice

• Start a new iMovie project.

• Import a few clips.

• Arrange video and audio clips in a scene.

Now, think!

• Where does your film need titles or other visual effects?

Now, think!

• For which scenes in your film do you want to add music?

• What kind of music is needed for these scenes? Example: serious, silly, or sad.

Reference

• List everybody who worked on your film (behind-the-scenes, or actors).

• Go back to your initial research and script. List out your research sources.

• Did you use photos or video clips from an outside source? List the media and their authors.

Now, think!

• Who do you want to see your finished film?

• If planning to share online, which websites or apps do you want to use to publish your movie?

• Work with your parents or teachers to determine the best way for you to share your movie with audiences. Make a plan together about your movie.
