Once my partner ( Clare O'Mara ) and I had succeeded in filming for the music video our first priority after that was to ensure that the footage was save. In order for this to happen we had to upload the footage onto the computer that we had chosen to edit the footage on. We also had to ensure that the video was also on the editing program/software that we were going to use so that it would be very easy to access the footage when we were ready to start editing.
To be able to make these things possible you would firstly have to make sure that you have the card that the footage is stored on. If you recorded without a card it would make the downloading process a bit harder. Once you have located the memory card that the footage is on insert it into the computers card slot. If there isn't a slot for it you may need to get an adapter. Once the card has been inserted in the computer and the files has been located you must copy and paste the footage into a new folder that has been names something that relates to the music video. When I did this step I named it ' Day 1' then the location that we went to film. This was in order for me to easily remember what we did that day, and what kind of footage to expect when I get into that folder. I did this for each of the different locations I went to. Once the footage is in a new folder with the name of your choice you must ensure that the video is in the editing software. This is to ensure that once you are ready to edit all the videos are already in the software. Once you are ready to edit the footage make sure to name the file something that you would remember and relates to what you are doing. In my case due to the fact that my song is Unknown by Foxes and my partner is Clare O'Mara I chose to name is " Unknown Music video - Khrystlyn and Clare ".This allows me to keep to the topic and find my files easily.
