EDITING EXPERIENCE

OUR EXPERIENCE

To create our film and preliminary tasks, we used "Pinnacle Studios" which is a paid application easy to use for beginners in film making on any type of computer.

To commence, we started off by including a Lionsgate intro to create more of a professional look to our film opening. To include, we added many nature shots to make it more tense and include the audeince in the action. This way the audience will have the ability to observe how more rain seems to appear as the film opening reaches the point in which the girl is hit in the head with the rock.

Also, we included mysterious music in the background, sound effects of twigs breaking and birds chirping, and a heart beat in the background to mimic the increasing heartbeat of the girl running away from the stalker.

In terms of editing the videos, we used fade-out effects to create tension and intrigue among the viewers, helping to make them desire to watch the film. To include, we applied the video stabilisation effect to decrease the movement of the camera and decreased a little bit the brightness of the videos to create a lower curious lighting, but not decreasing it too much, due to the fact that the audience wouldn't be able to see what is occurring.

Apart from these factors, we have also decreased a small amount the ambient sound on the videos in which there is no dialogue to not interfere with the background music.
