A list of steps showing what actions to take during the Offline stages of editing a project, to ensure the best quality piece of work possible.
- Start with lots of footage (rushes). Watch through these twice, the second time make notes as you go along for future reference.
- Create 1st edit. Keep all the edits, just in case.
- Begin 2nd edit. Leave time between 1st & 2nd so you can approach it the second time with fresh look. Trim down the original edit to the stage where you can..
- Show to director/external expert.
- Make any suggested alterations, or completely restart 2nd edit.
- Once happy with this, walk away from it for a while, as to not get too attached to certain aspects of the project. This means that when coming back to it, you can see mistakes you may have made or add new ideas.
- Final Edit 1.
- Show to director again, receive feedback.
- Final Edit 2. (Repeat previous stage as many times as necessary)
Online editing to be carried out after this, to add any effects and grading that may be needed.
