Editing

Yesterday I had a session editing on my own guys, it was weird not having anyone there to work with but nonetheless i managed to try out a split screen.
I spoke to Sir about it and ihe mentioned it may have been a bit easier if we were to have shot the whole 'making tea' from further away. This would only help because when trying to the put two shots on the screen, some of them will end up being rather squashed and looks very unproffesional.
Firstly, i tried it vertically but it seemed to cut out the majority of the shot, for example the mug, i had to cut out the handle. Therefore, i tried to do it horizontally, this seemed to have worked slightly better but however not much of a difference.
I spoke to sir and he said if we were to re-shoot then perhaps we should frame it so there is an empty space on the left and the main object is on the right. NOTE- Try using the camera
long ways (to add more footage) and at different angles.

I looked at a video from Reqiuem for a dream, and the montage in it is shot extremely well. Their split screen looks amazing too.
Check it out guys.. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=vdSRG5HVlao
