With all the filming done, and the editing under way, we were all pretty excited to see the rough edit today, and I think we speak for everyone when we say that we were all quite impressed by it, and it was definitely just what we expected it would be.
We managed to catch a few minutes with Maria, the queen of little star, to ask her about the filming and editing done on the film, for which she used the programme ''final cut pro''
She told us that it took her about two days to edit the whole film together, which she told us is ''not too bad'' for a film. She said that the things that took her the longest were the street scene, which ''took time'' and the you tube clips, which she said she had trouble with, as the programmes she was trying were failing, so it took her a whole one and a half days to use her ''lateral thinking'' and come up with the idea of setting up the camera in her office and filming it that way.
When we asked her if she thought, compared to the other films she has edited, whether this was easy or hard, and she told us, ''it was quite easy, because of all the preparation we did, and all the time we took planning the segments and all the emotional development.
She said to us that ''the filming in the street wad diccicult because of the horrendous street bustle and distractions, however, the two actors pulled it off. But it does need quite a lot of lifting and needs more layers, music and colour balancing, for this we will use the apple programme ''color.'' Also, we need to edit about one minute of the film editing out, as it's too long.''
She also said that this is a completely new genre of film for her to make, as she has never done a ''rom-com'' before. She also told us that ''the creative process was enjoyable and so was watching it blossom from the first day when we were just coming up with words to now , when we have a film with a structure and storyline.
So that's all for now guys, we only have a few more bits of editing to do now, credits and titles, and hopefully we will have more updates for you soon.
