This past week our class has been focused on video editing. To do this we've been using Adobe Premiere Pro to create videos for different projects. The thing that has so far stood out to me the most in this unit is simply how time consuming editing a video is. Without a good plan on how the storyboard of your video will go a lot of time is wasted in the editing process simply figuring out what you want in your video. For example on the last project I completed I had to make a game trailer for a game I was just given a large amount of raw footage for. This meant I not only had to find the shots I wanted in my video and cut them out of a much longer footage reel, but I also had to find and add things such as sound effects and music to use in my video.
One thing that could help the problems I'm having is the use of a storyboard. Often when I make a video I jump straight into it. I only take time to maybe think up a loose timeline of what I want in my video beforehand. This leads to many problems farther down the road and leads to a sloppy end product. Storyboards would help me plan out my videos ahead of time and keep them on task and unified in theme. Here is a good link I found to help me with my storyboarding skills:
