Technical difficulties

New to editing software

I wasn’t very familiar to editing videos as I never did it before so taking on this task meant I had to fiddle with buttons and trial and error through it before I could find what I was looking for. This was very time consuming and did not give me perfect results as some effects I wanted to add on I didn’t know how to. The editing software slowed me down a lot as it wasn’t very user friendly if you are new to it as you had to go through many different setting functions before uploading the video.

Dark days for lighting

Due to filming in the winter are filming time was cut short due to the early darkness when filming outside. I did not have much lighting accept a few phone lights hence why most of the filming was needed to be done in broad day light to give a clear shot. This really interrupted are filming as some shots needed to be re done a few times before getting the perfect shot but due to the days getting dark before 5, by the time we were set we didn’t have more then a few hours to film a day.

Parking problems

when parking outside my friends house to take the balcony shots there was limited space due to builders designing more houses next to his, this gave me a lot of problems and meant leaving the car in unknown areas, resulting in a ticket. Doing the town shot was a big problem as it was close to Christmas so parking in town was close to impossible so we had to take a shot driving past but keeping a steady hand which was very hard due to the speed bumps after every yard.
