The do/make sure you do list:

Must do’s before Week 12!

  • Sync up the audio of the screen recording, the H4n microphone and DSLR audio to prevent any more echoes from happening.
  • Ensure that we make a copy of all the found footage and audio links we’ve used and double check everything is royalty free so we don’t get sued (pls).
  • If Premiere Pro file is not opening, reopen the file through the auto-save folder (and pray that most of it actually saved)
  • Create the appropriate audio fades to create more breaths and in this case, ensure that audio levels are swell.
  • Book, Book, Book an edit suite room ahead of time! Just so you don’t get kicked out constantly.
  • Always save everything onto the media server and another drive. If you can, save another copy of the edit with an older or newer version of Premiere Pro (Goddamn updates!!!!)
  • Try and be calm and patient when editing out the unnecessary ums and ahs out of the interviews.
  • Label the edits the most appropriate name for the next person to continue editing.
  • (Have a substantial amount of coffee)
  • Cut out any repeated information.
  • Ensure that the structure is concise before the consultation session with Rohan.
  • Double check with him if we’re allowed to use certain footage that would be relevant and appropriate as b-roll footage.
