Editing Task- Practical

In this task I added and edited our newly filmed clips into our film opening. I used dropbox to add the clips from my phone as we decided to use my Iphone 7 as it was better quality than our camera that we alternatively used. I transferred the clips onto dropbox and downloaded them onto the desktop so that I could simply drag the clips into the right places in our film opening.



The screenshot below shows the new clips, saved into our coursework folder in our desktop.


In the screenshot below it shows that I have added in our new clip of blood dripping down Lucy's hand. I cut the beginning and ending of the clip as at the beginning it showed Eve pouring the food colouring onto Lucy's hand. I also cut the ending as the blood slowed down and began to stop dripping. I made sure that I overlapped this with the stream sound effect as the blood was dripping into the stream so would therefore sound more effective and realistic.


I then added in the clip where Lucy is lying dead by the side of the stream. We changed this clip from our other one by including a tilt upwards to show 'The killer' walking away from the body. I decided to film it in this way as I thought it would look more effective and creepy. I cut the beginning of this clip as it showed a pause before Josh started walking away from Lucy's dead body.


Next, I cut the clip where the animal blood drips onto the wet autumn leaves. I cut the end of this clip so that the clip only showed to points where the blood was dripping the fastest onto the leaves, to show that the stab had caused a lot of blood.


In the screenshot below it shows that I added the stabbing clip where Josh removed the bloody knife from Lucy's body. We didn't have to cut this clip because it was perfectly timed. However, we did decide to speed up the clip slightly to make the scene more intense.


I then added in the clip where it shows a extreme close up of Lucy's hand and hair being dragged away, down to the stream. This was a new clip that we decided to film so that our film opening would flow better.
