3rd March - Editing Lesson

Today we started by adding transitions between each scene to make it flow better, but, with the added time that this put into the production, we realised that it was ridiculously long for an opening sequence, and thought that it included too much of the storyline. We thought that the first scene was very good, and, by itself, would be an excellent opening sequence. It was the strongest part of our peer feedback, and conveys all the opening scene crime thriller conventions. Because of this, we decided to remove the forest scene. Although this idea was good initially, we don't think that we could have produced this to a good enough standard to compare with the first scene. Also, because we didn't manage to get the transition done, the last scene seemed a bit out of place to jump to, and confusing the audience is what we don't want to achieve!
After finalising this decision, we inserted the credits and the transitions for these, so this has all been done.
Meanwhile, Ed was producing the soundtrack to go over this piece on GarageBand.
Next lesson, we will work on the sound together and add in any effects we may need to include.
