Editing >_

I’m only on act 2 scene 2. I’ve had to do far too much fiddling just to get the sound working. I don’t know why Adobe is randomly chewing up the sound, but cutting it up and trying to match it to the video is a pain! It seems to be working now though.

But the colour balance! Trying to get the footage from the two cameras to even remotely look similar is nigh-impossible. The first scene hasn’t a hope because, for some reason, the lighting set up was different on the two days. I’ve messed around with colour and saturation, and anything else I could think of, but the fact that it was on two different cameras, recorded in two different formats, with no white balance, means my options are limited. Even if the footage did match the sound quality is different so what can I do?

Gaaaahhhhh!

The amount of twiddling I have to do even before I try to edit it together is really annoying.
