Editing Week 2



This week my group worked on editing again. Lily had the idea to use the first scene of me running as a title sequence. This was because the scene was long and not too much was really going on. Our first placement of these credits was awkward as they moved with the background and were difficult to see as the shot moved on. To counter this, we moved the credits to the bottom corner to make them much easier to see. I think the credits at the beginning add a professional edge to the opening and I  am glad how they turned out.

Filming Week 1

This week my group did our practice run for our film. We took some practice shots in order to see what shots would work best for conveying what we wanted to show through our film, with a focus on suspense.  This is from a shot of me running from the beginning of the opening. The shot follows me as I run past the camera. This gives the audience the feeling that I am being watched which adds to the suspense. While the shot worked fine, we found it was a little difficult to film, so we decided the camera moving alongside me would be better. This shot shows my dead body from the end of the opening. We decided a high angle shot would work best as it would show the viewers my whole body. However, we noticed it was difficult to get the shot as the high angle made filming my whole body difficult from the horizontal angle.

This week we began editing our film opening. After we uploaded the footage to Adobe Premiere Pro, we started by cutting our film. All of our videos had tons of extra footage of pauses, and us yelling cut, these needed to be edited out along with any other dead footage. We also lowered the exposure of the video to add to the suspense, but this had an inverse effect of increasing the volume. We also began adding in the music that plays through my headphones throughout the opening.
