Creative Journey - The 5th day

December the 3rd- during this initial editing process I watched through all of my first shots, selecting which ones would be used. I then re-watched the selected clips, and placed them into an initial order, from this point I clipped the shots in certain places to create a  rough version of a film that flowed.
During this initial process I discovered that I would have to re-film certain shots as some where too dark in paces, I also decided to re-film other shots to ensure I had variety in my camera shots and angles.

December 8th - After re-filming the needed shots over the weekend I re-ordered my clips, putting them in an order hat flowed in a way which I liked. I then began my editing process,  which initially was really just clipping and cutting shots to make sure they flowed easily. It was also during this session that I added my first audio clip over the top of my film, it was a clip to show detective Grey suffering from war PTSD in his dreams.


12th December- During this session I continued to edit my film, importing more audio clips to add to the tension in the clips. I added transitions between both video clips and audio files. This allowed for more continuity in my film, making it easier to follow the action on screen. 


 This shows the editing process involved when working on an audio file, it was during this lesson that i first started editing the audio files in order to build tension fitting with the codes and conventions of a thriller. 



15th December- after I finished editing the sound in my opening sequence in the previous lesson, I decided to try and edit the colour in some of my shots. The shots during the bedroom scene are too dark, even for a thriller which is supposed to have dark lighting. This didn't work out too well but in the end but overall colour and lighting for the rest of the sequence is good. 

 
During this session I also decided to take another look at the audio and tweaked it once again to make sure it was good enough. I used the pen tool in premier pro to do this.
