So today it was time to start editing all the footage my group and I recorded. Rashawn told me that he had already started editing some of the new clips. I asked him to show my group and I the edits. So far, the footage was looking alright. I saw areas in the editing footage that could be changed so I started critiquing the work. Rashawn had added a black border to the footage and I didn't really like it being on ALL the footage. So I told him to take it off on some of the scenes. I kept asking him to change it and to replay it until it seemed good. Once the border issue was taken care of, I asked Rashawn to zoom in on Alex falling after losing the race. After that happened, the software crashed. Rashawn saw the footage was still there so I told him to start the editing program back up on his computer. Once it opened, my group and I got right back to work. I told Rashawn to speed up or to slow down some clips. Soon after that, the program crashed again. My group and I waiting for it to open again and saw that the only version of the edited footage that was there was before the change of faster/slower scenes. So, I asked Rashawn to edit it right back how it was before, with the parts I suggested to be sped up/slowed down. Inevitably, looking at the recent pattern, the editing program crashed again. This loop of edit-crash-edit-crash just kept on going for a long time. At this point, most of our edited footage was lost. Eventually, I decided to tell Rashawn to stop editing and download a different editing program on his computer.
