Process
Rough cut
You might say: assembly, first cut, picture lock
Editing in passes: assemble all the usable takes in order, cut to a rough version, refine to a fine cut, then lock the picture before sound and colour.
- What it does
- Fixes the story first, so time is not spent polishing scenes you will cut.
- Ask
- Does the story work before any polish?
- Trouble
- You add captions and grading, then cut the section.
