Track Cutting

_________________________________________________________________

The original track ‘Don’t Save Me’ by HAIM was 5 and a half minutes long. As a group we decided that this amount of footage would be unrealistic to collect and edit to a good standard within the time frame given. Also, we noticed that a lot of the lyrics were repeated and so cutting them out would not hinder the meaning or message of the song and our storyline would still fit effectively if we were to cut them out. Therefore we decided that this was the best option, and went about cutting the music clip down in various places using Final Cut Pro. In the end we cut around 50 seconds of music out of the video, but we made sure that the flow of the music was not disturbed and the areas that were cut were not noticeable. 

Here is the music track being cut in Final Cut Pro
