POST-PRODUCTION
To start with it is very important to have a good computer to do this work because it is a lot of gigabytes of video and audio, and if you wanna have it fast it is essential. Look for the best one you can find, without having to buy a new one.
Also, another factor that plays an important role is what program you use to edit. Short videos we recommend sites like cap-cut, which work very well, but in more extended videos use another one. In this case we have used Final cut pro. Also you have to evaluate if it is better for you to use only the free version or if it's better to get the premium. We also recommend Davinci which helps in stuff like color and lights of the video, and for free Apple users who only want free platforms, we recommend iMovie, which is very good and easy to use. There are a lot of free possibilities so explore a little bit and see which one you prefer. In case you want to expend some money, we recommend these three options: Davinci, the pay version, Final Cut, Premier Pro.
About the process of editing, being brief, you have to do the video part, putting all the videos in order, then adding the sound, and from there you can start editing the image. In our case we wanted a classic aesthetic, so we modified the images to have this right. The first thing of the image to take into account and edit is the lighting. We also recommend for the film look to add film grain, and the use of the halation effect. These little things are the ones that make the difference between the footage you have and the footage you want. Our advice is also to try different things and find the one that fits better for your film.
