editing the second attempt of filming

When we cam to class we were much more hopeful with the footage we had, and quickly began logging and capturing our film. After we had done this we decided that the footage we had the second time round was much more better than the first set, so we would use our recent footage instead.

Editing the film began to be alot more promising and easier, but the we hit our first problem. The shot we filmed when someone was looking at Kameir through the door looked good when it was filmed and the idea was good too, but when putting it together on the timeline it didn't match up or make sense. Luckily we had a tracking shot which sort of was over her shoulder and followed her through the door, which Marisa (technician) said would be a better shot to use to allow continuity throughout the film.

We also had another problem, which was the length of time. We found the clip was becoming very long, and we were unsure of what to do as we felt all the shot were necessary. For example we had a shot of Kameir walking down the stairs very slowly to create tension, but was taking up alot of time. So our teacher Louisa gave us the idea that cut the clip up into sections but add in cross-dissolves that show that time has gone past.

Later we showed our work to our teacher Mary and she had another opinion that maybe there should be a POV shot after the bathroom door has opened, so the audience can see what has happened. I went home and filmed that shot and the next lesson logged and captured it.
