Editing

Once we had finished filming and gathered all of our clips , we were able to begin editing. We used the Apple Mac to edit as it had better software and I thought this would give us a better overall finish. Some editing of certain scenes took longer than others, for example the scene with Bryony by herself walking down the landing, took 3 different types of editing. We first had to clip the scene down from 5 seconds to 0.8 seconds to gain the flashing effect we wanted, we then had to adjust the colour settings, as for some reason the camera gave our scene a orange tint. After doing this we had to insert transitions between all of Bryony's scenes to create an effective flashing effect. During editing we also added music to play alongside our trailer, this worked effectively and the beat of the music matches up with the transition changes very successfully. However a problem we suffered was getting the music to play longer than the final scene, without just finishing abruptly. I think that the editing of our trailer has been successful and if we were able to change this minor music mishap it would have been even better.
Also the quality of picture on the trailer is not as clear as I would have liked, but this is due to the camcorder not us, and if I had the software to refine this then i would have.
