Editing, editing and more editing

Good morning!

Our task of cutting the clips has been completed. I have cut them so that the speech flows better, as if they are actually having a conversation rather than talking in seperate shots.

I found doing this really liberating as the end result meant that I could see our short film for the first time in it's entireity. I am extremely pleased with how it flows and pieces together.

As you know, one of the main difficulties so far is the lighting in the shots that were taken at the shed location and the interrogation room location. They are too dark and you cannot see what is happening in the shot, this meant that we have had to go through each shot and adjust the contrast and brightness so that we can see the action. This lead to a further problem as it meant that we had to edit the rest of the shots that were taken in broad daylight so that they looked more gloomy and overcast like the shot taken at the other locations. I have managed to do this successfully without it looking too unproffesional.
However the rest of the editing has been a smooth ride so far and we are very nearly finished. All that is left to do now is add in one or two transition effects  and add/ take out audio. I am hoping to find a eery sounding audio file to use for the beggining when he is walking through a deserted area. Of course we wont need audio for the interogation scene as we want the conversation to be the main focus of the film.
