The document discusses challenges faced during the filming and editing process of a student film project. During filming, the location lacked good lighting and they had to film late due to school schedules. They overcame this by filming during free periods and right after school. Some actors were also unreliable. During editing, the editor had to work creatively within the limitations of the footage available and started providing more input during filming to get the shots needed. They also used techniques like loading a second copy of the film to edit in parallel and prevent delays from loading footage.
