Editing 1

Editing

We first uploaded all of our footage onto garage band and put it in an order to see how it looked, we found that because we filmed in school hours, the lighting was day light. So we had to find ajustments on the video colour corrector to make it look like the camera was on night mode. We brought up colour corrector and made it dark and green to give it the night time affect however the sky was green, making it obvious that it was daylight still, so this is a difficulty we should have thought about before hand. Aswell as the lighting we had to add small sections off blank video to apply text onto it, to show our names as part of the title sequence. When doing this we found that it did not look ''scary'' enough so we decided to add the ''white noise ''/ ''tv static'' effect however we did consider the simple black background with white text, as it was a typical convention of the title sequence of thrillers which we found from research.

Colour Corrector effect ^

After looking at the editing we had done we decided as a group to use the white noise effect as we thought it made it more clear about the cutting from different scenes, and locations. Also we used a type writer effect to make it look more pshycological, we got the ideas from looking at other thrillers such as 'Momento'.

Adding text ^

When using the text tools we set our font to 'BROKENGHOST' rather then having a general obvious text like 'times new roman' we think that the text we chose made a better effect then if the text was simple and blunt although some pshycological thrillers do use capital letters with simple fonts such as 'tahoma'.
