EDITING FOR ROUGH CUT

     In today's lesson, I and Richy sat down editing the film for the rough cut being shown tomorrow, both of us had a part in editing this project together and exchanged idea and got a semi complete film opening without any color grading, sound effects nor any music at all; just the audio recorded with the camera. I told Richy that I will work on the spinning eye shot at home and the picture below is the key frame of this shot.



     When I came home, I continued with the editing of sound effects and finding the music fitting for the film because I felt like the music that Richy chosen doen't fit with the eye shot that we were hoping for. Also, we sadly must use the footage that Richy's eyes were moving because the footage is longer and it is more in synced with the music I've chosen but turned out for the good. I have once again recreated a point of view of a security camera by lowering the frame rate to 10fps when exporting and changing the colour of the footage to black and white then overlaying it with a green screen security camera overlay. FYI, this was the only green screen used in this film opening.







     For the intro used, I decided to use my old Adobe After Effects intro for my channel since when I retested my PC for an upgrade in graphics card for A Level Media Studies, I forgot to tell the shop to keep After Effects and ever since I wasn't bothered to download it for a second time. And also, the reason I used this intro was also because both me and Richy, our name starts with an R so why not use this intro for the sake of it.



Here is the rough cut:


P.S. The thumbnail of the video is actually the timeline of the rough cut and the only screenshot I've got because I stupidly did not save the photoshop file individually than the JPEG file. Well done me.

I also lost the recording to this editing session due to storage problems which was really dispointing.
