Logging the Footage

Our editor is working on another project as well as ours and so because the first week of our first post production coincides with the final post production week of the first group, the editor Jess asked me to help her log and label the footage.
Me and Chris met up and we went through the process of transferring everything from his hard drive onto the mac.

Then went through the process of putting everything from the mac into Avid Media Composer 6 in the most organised way possible; I labelled three separate bins and started the importing process. After Chris left I then went through each shot and labelled them according to the clapperboard prompts.

This was an easy enough process, though there were times where we had to go off Shot List, but I labelled them as clearly as possible and had previously spoken to the editor about it.

During this process I noticed that a lot of the theatre scenes were very Red. This was due to a lighting fault in the establishment, which has been previously described.

Hopefully these will be able to be colour corrected later on as there is no chance of a re shoot. The next step is to hand the footage over to Jess on Thursday.
