Production Process:Editing

Today we started the editing process! Before editing we looked over the footage, to see what scenes to use, as a team. Most of the clips were good; but there were some desired shots that were missing and would help to show diversity in shots and view points of the characters. Later this week we'll refilm or/and film extra shots using varied angle shots and lighting etc.


The first part of the opening, when the titles are running, fast paced editing was used to create a tense atmosphere, making the titles interrupt the scene helped to enhance this effect. In the opening sequence the effect we wanted to convey was to make the audience feel just as confused, paranoid and tense like the protagonist. 

The titles were created in Livetype; which ha proved a useful multi-use program to use and effective to our thriller.
After we edited the phone booth scene and the antagonist scene, including adding music and titles, the duration of the coursework came to just about a minute. To make the opening sequence longer I suggested to write another scene, so I wrote a scene where the protagonist finds the memory stick. 

This did help to increase the time, and tomorrow we will be filming some more shots to add to the scene; but this time we are doing to vary the range of the lighting instead of just being filmed in near darkness. After filming some the extra shots and edit them hopefully we can add extra features such as sound effects etc.
