Editing Final Piece

Editing

In the draft edit of our original idea 'Into The Fire' we didn't have succesful credits or a title credit for the film. However, in our final edit 'Live Online. Die Online.' We created titles using after effects and adobe premier pro. These gave the opening scene a much more professional look and work towards engaging the audience and making them feel like they are in the film. This is due to the titles that we created in after effects, because they make the audience feel like somebody is talking to them on the internet, which is very relatable in this generation because of constant use of technology.

Planning the new costumes for the final edit

As we have decided to change the idea for our final edit, we have had to adapt the costume of the actress playing the young girl featured in our clip. Originally she was planned to wear active/running gear to show that she was a jogger, whereas now the idea is that she has been out for the day with family or friends. Therefore, she needed to be in a more casual day-to-day costume. Now, we have decided on a simple black skirt, black tights, boots and a rugby top which suggests her youth.

Also, for the last two shots, the character is shown in her pyjamas as she is getting into bed.
The stalker, which is me, will be wearing the same costume as we previously decided as his character is the same. He will still be playing the stalker and will be hiding in the shadows outside the window, which is why black clothing is essential.

Filming Location Change

Location Change

In our draft edit, our jogger is seen leaving her house and starting to jog towards the park, however in our final edit we have decided to film the entire opening scene inside the house at night. The location of the park was very impractical due to bad weather conditions and poor lighting. In the house however, the lighting can be controlled and shots are much easier to complete successfully.
