Comedy Editing

Looking through the footage i thought i would edit the scene in which they are sitting in the lounge. I started off with naming my clips and as the crew used a clapper board i named the clips with the shot numbers and takes too.



I looked through the script to help with the rough edit but i just went of what i thought would fit best. Thisndidnt take long to do.

Once i had a rough assembly i got Chris to go through it and he showed me how much they mess their lines up. I tried to cut most of it out but there is still one part where Alf says No twice but i think if i get rid of the second no it will jump too much so left it in.



I tried to make sure i used a lot of CU's to help the audience to get involved in the actions but i used the odd long shot to show the actions and reactions to certain things, such as when Penny shows them the Laptop. Also when Alf makes the comment about the emails being shit i left a little break before Tony starts talking so that the audience can have a moment laughing at the joke.
