Video Editing with Adobe Premier Elements

Today I experimented with video editing software. The software used was Adobe Premier Elements, Adobe's entry level video editing software. It was easy to use. I loaded some video footage of the "Fields" band practicing in Magnet studios. I experimented with different video filters to see what interesting effects could be added. The original footage is quite dark so I experimented with the brightness and contrast controls as well. The sound quality recorded by the camera's built-in microphone was quite poor due to the high sound levels. I have some better audio which was recorded using Cubase running on a laptop. The audeo was obtained directly from a stereo output feed from the live mixing desk. I intend to create a video of the live practice session using this better quality recorded sound, synchronised with the visuals from the video footage.
