The edit was done in Final Cut. By stacking the clips in the time line one on top of each other, and then using the Motion tab-Crop and animating it with key frames, I was able to get more than one dog in the frame. The time line ended up looking like a huge V, all right crops going down, then back up with all left crops. We did a bit of speed changing using Modify-Speed change, but not that much. Each clip had to be graded separately in Colorista for intensity and contrast, however we left the color alone. There are 3 sound tracks, the speaker, a close up of a dog panting, and then a track of the overall kennel noise. I would enjoy any comments or questions anyone may have.
