Logging

This is where I sort through all of the source video material, cut out all the usable clips, group them, then label accordingly. That way when we’re searching for a specific take or shot, we can save time and resources.

First Assembly

The first assembly is where I take all of that meticulously logged footage and arrange it into a timeline consistent with the agreed storyboard. Where logging gives you your first glimpse at your film’s footage, the first assembly gives you the first glimpse of your film laid out in a linear structured format.

Rough Cut

Okay, now it’s really time to wake up. So far, it’s been all about cruising on auto and following basic techniques but from here on out, I’ll be required to make some pretty tough decisions. I’ll turn my focus towards structure and pacing, adding in pauses, transitions, titles, narration, and anything that’ll help convey the story.

Fine Cut

Where the rough cut focuses on refining the overall film, the fine cut focuses on refining each and every frame. If there are any blemishes, the fine cut is our last chance to catch them.

Final Cut

Now, the film is “Picture Locked”, meaning it’s ready for finishing touches like colour corrections (audio mixing, special effects, etc.) and no more changes to the timeline or total running time can be made. This is where I take the film from meh to magic!
