Editing Process

The editing process for my thriller opening scene was quite easy as a group we had all put in our input and opinions on what parts should be shortened and cut. One of the areas that we had struggled with was the sound editing as we had to record the voices separately which causes a problem because we had to sync the voices with the lips on the screen. However we had overcame this problem by syncing it as close as possible to the voices, some of this wasn't a problem as some of the faces during vocal scenes which made some of this problem easier to handle. One of the good parts about the editing was the sound for the footsteps that Alex had handled herself, the footsteps where in time with the walking of the characters in the film
which sounded good however they were repeated. Some of the shots we had taken had to be cut because of actors tripping or laughing during certain scenes so we had to cut out some bits which may have affected the final product. One of the problems we had with editing was a what parts of our filming should be cut out due to different aspects, we also had to use the editing software to editing the contrast of the shots so that they would be viewable due to some of the shots being too dark. We had used premier pro to add in the titles of the actors on the screen, we did have some issues trying to make sure that they were the same size and in the same position each time they would be over laid on top of the actual video scene so that it would not breach an error of contingency when we publish our final edit of our thriller opening scene.
