today went well it reminded me of the things that we learnt ages ago such as log bins and rushes. We were taught a quick way of editing though that was to group shots into the timeline. For example we grouped the running scene together, the fighting scene together and then the opening scenic shots together. After we managed to do this we then started to cut down a few shots and started putting a few together. I did't actually get to touch the mouse once because it was Ben's turn, but this afternoon i am going to go up to the editing suite with Grace and we are going to do some editing together.
Tuesdays editing session
today went pretty well i got to have more of a go compared to monday, the actual video looks like its going to come together really well. Today we were cutting down the duration of the actual clips and were choosing the best clips to put together. We discovered today that we actually have some really good shots, which has made me feel really good about what the final product is going to look like.
Wednesdays editing session
today we carried on from the work we did yesterday but when we got to half way through the lesson Matt told us that we could do something different to what we originally planned. Instead of the footage playing from what we thought would be our first shot to our last shot we decided to play our last shot first and our first shot last, this would make the sequence stand out a bit more and keep the audience guessing about what was going to happen.
Thursdays editing session
Today we started to re order the footage so that it was in reverse order, the idea of this would be that we'd show something happening and then explain why it has happened with the next shot, (the next shot would be before if it was in standard order). We wanted to add music in today as well after we put the shots into reverse order but Matt, Paul and Luke wouldn't let us until everything was finished and in place. We managed to get all of the shots in place to leave us with just being able to do the sound affects and the credits.
Fridays editing session
today we spent our time doing the credits for the sequence, this was harder than we thought. It had to al be spaced out equally which took us some time but we managed to do it 3/4 into the lesson so we had some time to do some special effects on the credits which made them look really cool and will hopefully mare our Thriller opening title sequence stand out to anyone else's.
Mondays editing session
Today we did all the sound for the sequence for example when one of the characters, played by Gabe, gets hit we put in a sound affect to exaggerate the hit. We have also added a little sound for whenever when one of the credits come up. The sequence looks so much better with sound in it. It has really made it so much better.
