When I had finished making all the different clips it was time to edit it all together. Even though Robyn still had not finished the information screens I took the oportunity to explore the software programme Adobe After Effects. Now, I have never used any software like this before and I felt rather daunted at the prospect of having to figure out how to use the software in a couple of days. However once I got started it seemed fairly simple, import the files then add to the time line. It really was that simple.
The imported files appeared on the left had side of the screen, to add these to the item all I had to do was click and drag, dropping the file onto the timeline at the bottom of the screen. When added to the timeline the files became blocks varying in length depending on how long the clip was. Each file was placed onto a new line with the name of that file in section to the left of the timeline, which made it a lot easier in the later stages of editing when there was lots of files as I could scroll throught the list click the relevent section I wanted which highlighted the corresponding block on the timeline.
