Inserting audio & more editing

Today we decided to take advantage of our free period and continue with our editing. Due to the deadline being just around the corner, we have to utilise our time and try to make more alterations whenever we can. Our main aim today was to import the footage that we re-filmed yesterday onto the computer and into Adobe Premier Pro and to also insert the audio which again was recorded yesterday, into Evan's singing scene. 

After the audio and footage was downloaded onto the computer, we added the new voice over of Evan to the ending of the extract, which is where the antagonist says 'Daisy'. However this was more difficult as we thought, as it was hard to match the audio with the movement of his mouth and for the dialogue to sound realistic and clear. Once this was done we adjusted the sound level and made the audio louder. The reason for this was because we wanted the ending to be dramatic and having loud audio would more likely to engage the audience. Following this, we inserted the establishing shot  and the pressing of the doorbell into the software, in addition we had to remove the old footage and then crop the new footage down to an appropriate duration. This was because we don't want the opening sequence to be even longer, as it only just gets away being the time that it was. Later on in the lesson, Izzy went into the studio and recorded more audio for the news report scene.  We felt that this was significant as this scene doesn't flow like we wanted it to and agreed that more over-lapping audio will sound better. However after downloading the new audio onto Adobe Premier Pro, me and Emma found that the audio didn't sound disorientated enough, but after making alterations to the sound and moving the audio into another folder, we managed to make the audio sound how we would like.
