Today's lesson
We continued to add effects and edit our footage in today's lesson. Firstly we separated the sound from the shots and removed the audio from the scenes that didn't require the sound. In addition this ensured that all background noise and dialogue from myself and group members was removed and therefore made the extract more appropriate and intense. As already mentioned, the footage was too long , lasting over 5 minutes , therefore we cut down the extract and deleted irrelevant shots that made the clip a more acceptable duration. Another point to note is that we started to crop the shots in which the antagonist crosses out his victim's faces and added them over the other footage. This then created a 'flash back' effect due to the footage quickly appearing and then disappearing throughout. We personally believe that a flash back is common within thrillers and adds to the tension, therefore may benefit our extract.
Towards the end of the lesson we started to look for copyright free classical/sinister music. Even though we already found music and added it to our first initial edit last Thursday, we found that some members disliked the audio we chose and therefore we found another copyright free song which was much preferred and more appropriate.
