Editing replacement clips

When it came to re-editing, I found that this was a very technical process. Before I could replace a certain clip I had to record its details; the exact timing it began and the exct timing that it ended. I would the remove this clip and replace with the new clip that I would spend around 10 minutes getting perfectly in sync. I would then split the clip at the exact moment the old clip had ended. I had to ensure that my figures were exact, as if they were not this would mess up the clips that followed and they would all e out of sync. It was a tricky process and took a very long time, however I commited much of my free time to ensure I was able to get it done for myself and my team.
Together as a group we all watched through the video and selected clips that we wanted to change and replace with more subtle clips. I then did this, which took a lot of concerntration and was an intricate task, however I managed it well and was able to replace the clips without ruining the sync of the rest of the video, which was excellent.

We also replaced the clip where you see the text message from Eddie. Originally this clip had a swear word in it. We put this hear to emphasise the abuse she receives, however we were later told that for our task this was unacceptable and should be removed. We therefore refilmed the text without the swear word and replced this clip.
