Suggestions
• Make a plan and use your time efficiently – 48 hours will fly right by.
• Be flexible.
• Be realistic
• Locations: 1 set used masterfully is better than 5 sets used poorly, and will save you time.
• Expect to spend 5 times longer editing than shooting
• Hard drives fail and programs crash – Save Your Work!
• You might never be satisfied with your cut. Better to be done than perfect.
• Once your rough cut is done, consider exporting a draft each time you want to take a break. That way you always have something ready to submit and won’t be scrambling at the finish line.
