Returning To Our Film Location

Today we returned to our filming location to re-film a scene of the attacker running away from the victim that he'd just attacked. We had to re-film this because the bushes in the background of the shot were very different in length and these are in some other scenes.

Using Garage band

Today me and my group partner decided to have a go at using the application Garage Band to create a backing track for our horror opening. We played around with this to gain an idea of how it worked what styles of music and diferent instruments worked well together to give a suitable piece of music to go along with out movie.

Using LiveType

Today we decided to create a title for our groups production name which we decided would be 'LS Productions'. We used this application instead of just using the text titles in final cut express we did this so we had a wider choice of title styles, effects and colours.

Applying Titles To Our Footage

Today me and my group partner used the text titles in final cut express to add actors & actresses, camera operator, and production team names to our horror opening. We currently have around 50 seconds of footage.

Carrying On With Editing

Today we continued to edit our horror opening. However we realised that we will need to return to our filming location and to film the horror ending again because the bushes in the background are a different length during diferent clips as we filmed at different times.

The Editing Process

We continued to edited together the footage we filmed for our 2 minute horror opening. We edited two clips together today and played these over each other by altering the opacity of each clip and we showed the victims walking whilst the villian/attacker was alspo walking.

Continuing With Editing

In todays lesson we continued with our editing of the horror opening and also added some transitions between scenes to make the cutting more effective. The main transition we used was a cross disolve becuase we felt this was the most fluent transition for our particular footage.

Begining The Editing Process

In todays lesson we reviewed our footage and worked on different editing techniques whilst doing this for example when the opening is more exciting or high passed the scenes lengths between cuts should be shorter and and the editing will be quicker. We then began to edit opening few scenes for the horror opening.
