Editing

After myself and Ferne had filmed the footage we needed for our trailer we started editing it on the software, Adobe Elements. This allowed us to cut, merge, brighten and use different effects on the filming we had done.

First of all we put our pieces of footage in order to match our storyboard. This allowed us to have a clear vision of what we had and then made it easier to see what we needed to edit in order for it to flow. The filming represented the storyboard, however we felt the love scene let the rest of the trailer down. We decided that Talia, our actress for Sophie, had an acting strength and it may be better if we filmed it from Bowe's perspective. This gave the audience a deeper connection with the characters and also made it seem more professional.

We used the editing tools to see what effects we could use in order to create the most effective trailer. We changed the colours of some images and also used photographs that we had taken of Sophie to help create a more shocking reaction from the audience. Myself and Ferne cut a lot of film as we only used the bits that were necessary and effective. This is why when creating our project we used as much film as we can, so that we could edit the best parts.

We feel that we have started the editing process well as we are aware of how to use the software and manipulate it to our advantage, however the trailer needs more editing, as the filming may need to be moved around.
