The story so far... Mid-Editing

SO FAR
We have edited our title sequence to our first rough draft in two days, pretty quick turn around.
We have constructed just under 2 minutes of footage where you see a girl walking to a house and a person inside the house waiting for her. There are constant jump cuts from the girl walking to the perosn walking round the house, there are also shots of the person in the house burning pictures of the girl which makes it seem as though she is walking to danger. We have played around with opacity and crossfading to show the two journeys and show how the girl is vulnerable, with props, and in danger which the audience know and she does not creating an uncomfortable effect. We have consistently kept POV shots around the house to see props clearly and give background for the girl alongside setting for the film. The frequent use of cutting creates uncomfort and confusion which we hope will make the suspense towards the climax at the end more effective.


TO DO
We are going to continue editing our title sequence and tweaking certain things to make it the best it can be. We are considering deleting some footage as it will be more effective regarding suspense for the climax if it is more concise and the footage is relevant, with no repeated footage. We also need to find some sound to fit the piece and we are going to use www.incompetech.com to find some copyright free music that creates an eerie atmosphere.
