In today's lesson we carried on with the penultimate part of editing our opening sequence. We were currently editing the extreme close up of Character B on the phone saying, 'Don't jump.' From there we carried on editing till the end of the opening sequence by cutting each clip until we were satisfied. We found that many of the clips that we had previously filmed there was white noise that ruined the atmosphere. So we copied the audio of ambient sound of the birds and traffic in the background to this part of the opening sequence. We cut and stretched the audio until the audio blended into the clips. We decided to keep the footage in colour as this would give the full effect of the scenery and so the opening sequence would appeal to the audience of teenagers.
After editing the last clip of a low angle long shot of Character A running off into
the distance. This meant that we could now move on to the effects of transitions and the titles. We trailed and error a few transitions that we thought would work when the scene changes. Fortunately, this did not take a long time as we knew what effect many of these transitions gave from the previous preliminary task beforehand. We inserted a editing transition between the establishing shot and the close of Character's A feet walking. We did not add a transition or effect to after every clip as then the opening sequence would not flow and look naturalistic. Also when viewing the sequence it would not give a good impression that it is of a thriller genre.We again started to discuss what potential music we could incorporate into our thriller opening sequence. I heard that many of the sites which were copyright free were blocked at collage therefore I decided to research into these websites at home to see what I could find. I will report back to the group to show them what I have found.
