I think one of the most important parts to finish your video before exporting it out, is getting feedback from friends. When you're working on a file for a long time you become used to it and things seem natural, usually someone else will spot things that you will totally miss and this of course is very important to the quality of your video. I asked my five other flat members to each take a look and write down any problems they saw. I got responses from how some parts of the conversation looked unnatural to the audio levels being unbalanced.
After taking note of all these, I then took my chop to both my team mates who I hoped would be able to give more detailed feedback. The length was bordering around 3:30 and with a piece that's meant to be 2:00 we decided that the conversation could be chopped down to size, we sat together and cut out any unnecessary parts by the end it played out more naturally while cutting out 30 seconds of footage. I also went ahead and edited the sound levels, mostly I raised the dialogue while ensuring they didn't peak. Testing them on both speakers and headphones the difference between was a lot but each sounded natural.
