Now that all of my scenes have been filmed, it is time to connect them all and do the final editing. I filmed the outside scenes first, and then the ones in the Spelling bee tryout room last, as the setting I filmed at was always noisy or being used. Because of this, I had to replicate what the protagonist was wearing to the tee, which was even harder as the actor for him would come to school with different hair styles. Once this was figured out, I used iMovie to merge the scenes together.
When learning how to do transitions, I didn't realize that some of the clip duration would be sacrificed for the blending of shots. Because of this, I had to go back and film some shots over again, but this time longer so that it would have time to blend.
When transitioning from the first to the second scene, I realized that it wasn't as smooth as I would have liked it to be. To fix this, I inserted the sound bridge of the school bell to signify that the school day was over and introduce the audience to have more context as to when and where the next scene takes place, being after school walking home.
