Today was the last day of editing!
We all worked solidly for as long as we could because we wanted to finish so badly. Thankfully, it paid off.
We got the new clips of the party sequence and cut them all into quite small clips in order for them to fit in with the other clips. We added the blurry effect
onto these aswell to keep with the ‘drunken memory/flashback’ idea.
We also added in the extra titles we needed today.
We included the important ones within the actual filming, but didn’t do all of them, so we decided to make it look more professional we would add these titles in during editing.
We also added in the final main title “Under The Sheets” at the end. We chose to put it at the end of the opening sequence rather than at the beginning because we took ideas from a lot of films that we had watched and inspired us, and this is what they did so
we decided it’d look more professional if we did it this way.
All of the titles are smooth transitions, clear to read text and simple writing. We haven’t done anything ‘fancy’ with them because we didn’t think it would really benefit the piece that much. We also imported the Chase and Status song ‘Time’ into Final Cut Pro, and cut it where necessary, and luckily it fitted in really well with the clips and titles. We found a point in the song where it would be appropriate to cut, so Emily could deliver her line, and again we were really lucky because the timing in line with the footage was really good and fitted brilliantly. Now we have finished editing the piece together, we are really happy with the work produced and feel a lot better about it now than what we did before we had today’s session.
We are now ready to burn to dvd, which is the final step in the production of our opening sequence.
