Today I begun editing my rough cut. After importing all my files (including music) to Final Cut, I then had to decide which clips to use for the opening shot, as my original idea turned out not to work well enough. I decided to have my performer as the establishing shot, followed by a clip of the protagonists arguing to establish the characters and their relationship to the audience, this clip was a little dark so I changed the highlight levels to make it slightly lighter, and I slowed the clip down to 60% to make it seem more dramatic (and fit with the beat better). I managed to sync the footage fairly well, it's not perfect, but I think it's best to first do a rough cut and then finish it off once all the clips are in place.
