Editing: Day 1

My first time editing my footage via the Macs mainly consisted around getting to grips with the software. It was challenging however i eventually picked it up and started uploading and capturing my footage. I also uploaded my track and i dont feel that it needs cutting down. The track is 3 minutes and 24 seconds i feel that this is a good amount of time to reveal the artist, the genre, the story and style therefore it is unlikely that i will cut the song down. My progress so far includes the uploading of the track and the first scene i filmed which consists of my actor singing. I matched the scene up to the music quite easily and added a cross fade at the beggining and end which creates the sad mood i want to narrate the story. I also played around with the effects and i and considering having my promo in black and white due to the nature of the song.
