Developing Editing Techniques
In-camera editing is an editing technique where the editing shots are filmed in order, so the end result is already edited. Great filmmakers such as the Lumiere Brothers invented In-camera editing and used it in their films. Georges Méliès developed in-camera editing further by using in-camera editing to apply visual effects.

The pros of In-camera editing is that, if it is done correctly it can save a lot of time and is very efficient. In-camera editing is also cost efficient as you don't need editing software to cut the clips. Another pro about In-camera editing is that, people might not know how to edit on the computer, so the benefit of In-camera editing is that it is easy to use, however to master correctly, it can be quite difficult.
The cons of In-camera is that is extremely difficult to do correctly, also In-camera editing can be time-consuming because if you make one mistake, you have to redo the whole footage.
Overall, this task was a huge success to us, we wasn't familiar with these kind of filming techniques that was introduced to us, while learning about the in-camera editing, we had no experience producing in-camera editing footage. At first, we made a few mistakes and things went wrong due to us being very novice. One of our main problems that we encountered attempting the in-camera exercise was that when we paused the footage and continued, it wasn't consistent and it looked like choppy because it didn't flow as well as it should have. At the end of the exercise, we gained the knowledge of being able to film in-camera footage and throughout the exercise, the quality of our footage improved after re-shooting the scenes until we successfully filmed the in-camera footage.

In-Camera Editing
In-camera editing is a technique in film editing where the camera operator shoots the shots in the exact order they would be viewed in. The camera would shoot in the correct order so it would shoot straight to the next shot, it is good as you get a finished project without editing.
During the filming we used the in-camera editing technique, we filmed, after the shot was finished we was able to pause and get ready for the next scene. I was the cameraman and
I worked with my group, Basra, Daniel and Satveer, in-camera editing was difficult as you can encounter many mistakes, however it was a very fun experience and in-camera editing is very quick.
At the end of the project, we looked at back and we noticed a lot of mistakes, we were very novice at in-camera editing and its difficulty came as a surprise to us. A notable mistake we made was that people's heads were often half out of the camera. In-camera editing was extremely editing time-consuming if you made mistakes, simply because you would have to start over-and-over again until you got the whole piece right.
A famous in-camera editors who we have learned about is George Melies. George Melies is a French film-maker who is also known as the father of special FX, during his time, he made approximately 500 films.
