The last day of editing

Today, we aimed to get our final edit completed and uploaded to YouTube. Firstly, we desperately needed to re-film the establishing shot of the front of the house. So, Tammy, Izzy and I walked down to where we originally filmed. We took the camera we used originally (The Cannon 700D) and a tripod. We filmed various shots of the house to enable us to have a variety of footage to choose from. We then walked back to college.

When we got back to college, we imported the footage we had just filmed onto the computer, and selected the establishing shot which we thought was best suited. We then imported this into Adobe Premiere Pro, trimmed it, edited it into black and white and checked that the quality was still good, and to our delight it was.

After this, I then decided to try importing the new voice recording of our actor Evan singing 'Daisy Daisy' over the top of the video. After trimming the audio with the razor tool on Adobe Premiere Pro, I was then able to insert it. After a while of moving it around, I finally got it to fit.

We then decided to check our opening thriller sequence and look for any final adjustments which could be made. We then decided to make the 'Daisy' audio at the very end louder to add suspense and leave the opening on a cliff hanger. We then also make the news reporter voices a little quitter as they were slightly overpowering.

After this, we then watched the entire opening thriller sequence to make sure that it flowed and that we were happy with the editing, which we were. We could then export our video onto YouTube.
