Evaluation of the Rough Cut Progress

Once we had finished editing together our rough cut of clips on final cut pro we put it on a hard drive in order to upload it to our blogs. The rough cut is used to show how the clips work together and to give us a basis of video to work around and put more into. It is part of the research and development of our finished product as it allows us to try out different clips together and begin creating meaning within the video before shaping it into the finished product. We still need to make it less explicit and shape narrative and characters into it as more key themes before the final cut, but the edit is strong in editing to the beat and cuts on lighting flares. It’s also allowed us to play around with the dominatrix character and the watchers to work out how we’re going to finally portray those characters before the final cut.
