Editing the re filmed footage
In today's two hour media lesson there only seemed to be a few little bits we needed to improve before being completely done and ready to upload the final version of our thriller opening sequence. As there were only a few bits to do we split up the jobs between the tree of us in order to make sure we gave an equal contribution. Emma decided to sort out the audio of Evan (Oliver) singing daisy, daisy as she is good at editing the sound and so tried to fade it in and out whilst also positioning it so that is synced up with the video of him singing it on screen. Unfortunately they didn't match up and it was quite clear that it was out of sync and this couldn't be sorted through editing so we asked Evan if he would be willing to come in and re-record the audio on a different day, thankfully he agreed. Me and Tammy then began to edit the establishing shot of the house into the video. We cropped it down so that it fit the gap where the previous footage had been but it didn't look right. Once it was inserted we found that it appeared surrounded by a black boarder, we thought the best way to fix this issue was to zoom in on the clip so the frame fitted the whole screen. However, this made the footage look blurry and lag so we asked our teacher for assistance. She pointed out that something had been changed on the camera settings when we'd filmed and this had changed the format of our clip. Another problem with this footage was that when we filmed on Thursday, it was unseasonably sunny and therefore the light reflects off the windows of the house, making the clip look over exposed and takes effectiveness away from the low, dingy mood of the film.
We are left with two options:
1) To film the establishing shot for a third time.
2) To cut out the tilt and keep the opening shot as a still of the house paired with the sound effect of the shower.
