We began this lesson with all of our chosen shots in a new project, arranged in an order that matched our storyline and that we all agreed on. Also, some of the earlier shots had been cut to length in the previous lesson. This meant that during today's lesson our task would be to cut more of the clips to length, in order to ensure that the video flowed properly and looked visually correct, as well as to ensure that we would not go too far above the two minute limit for the final outcome. This is proving to be quite challenging, as the total length of our clips (not cut to desired length) is over 5 minutes. However during this lesson we managed to cut most of our clips to size, with only the last few shots remaining. Also, we rearranged the order of several shots, specifically at the very beginning. To ensure we didn't have two shots involving the camera moving in similar ways placed next to each other, we swapped the first two shots around so that the first shot is the forward tracking shot, followed by the static pull focus of the leaf. Finally, we decided to split the shot where the dog runs away into two halves and place the handy-cam shot of the dog running in between the two halves.
