Editing

After the filming of our shots we took the camera and captured the footage on to the Apple Mac and then we started to begin the editing process. After the editing process we used the Final Cut Pro were we started to cut and past the shots. Also we arranged them in order and started to make it like a thriller opening.

The editing Process took us for three lessons, which was our lessons on wednesday 28th January, Friday 30 January and Wednesday 4th Febuary. This is because we tried to get the cuts, transitions and the continuity of editing as perfect as we could. Then we had the media technician which showed us all the basic techniques on Final cut Pro. Therefore, we could add them to our thriller. For example the technician showed us how to overlap shots and also to slow or speed up the shots. We then started to add the credits on the film such as, starring, produced by, edited by and music by. To do the credits we used a program called Live on the Apple Mac's. The Live program allowed us to create a range of things such as, text, fonts, effects, size, and also to move it around the screen.
Lastly we were briefly taught by the technician on how to add music over the top of the film which we will start producing it on Friday.
We then decided that it was missing shots. Therefore, we are going to take the camera out again and re-film a couple of shots so that the thriller will look scarier.
