Editing with Final Cut Pro


Once all the animation is composited with the live footage, I exported them out of After Effect and brought them back to Final Cut Pro for the final edit.
As a result of good planning during the storyboarding process, the editing was pretty straightforward.


However, we spent a long time trying to work out what music would be most suitable for the video. We tried to find something that's British but not as popular as The Beatles or David Bowie. We did not want to use a commercial song neither as it makes the video seem really cheesy. The song however needs to have a beat and a certain pace to it, so it uplifts the mood as well as complementing the visual. With a good recommandation from my housemate, Kit Jennings, a choice was finally made on the last day.


The final edit for submission.
