Task 2: Preperation Techniques

Checking Material for Faults
This is simply checking all of the footage that has been shot to see if it is all perfect and usable to edit with. If you do not do this the editing will have to stand on a halt if you find out some footage is not working will be costly and time consuming so it is very important you check before you begin.

Synchronising Rushes
This is simply synching up audio that needs to be re-recorded, soundFX's and music that has been to video that has none of this it is done by selecting where usually the clapper starts merging the clips in editing.

Producing a Rushes Log
A rushers log is a document containing all the shots and scenes with the content written next to it along with the duration, the evaluation of the clip, The sound and if there are notes.

Marking up a Script
This is when the script is created they will usually mark the script by highlighting and writing notes with instructions of what the editor will have to do with the scene.

Labelling Tapes
This is not as common now due to advances in filmmaking but this was used to keep track of the tapes for films allowing the editor to keep track of what he was editing.

Storing Tapes and Films
This is simply keeping tapes and films in places to store to keep it organized.

Produce an Editing Decision List
This is a draft note of what clips the editor will be using, where they will cut and if know what they need to do to the footage.

Creating Bins
Bins are where you import you footage in editing software so you can actually use it in the editing software if the footage is digital. for film bins are the same concept but are using
physical tapes.

Clarifying the purpose of the work with a client or director
This is the client or director making sure and checking with the editor on exactly what they need to and what the client or direct wants to feel and see from their footage.
