Editing for the Preliminary Task

After filming we edited our preliminary task on Adobe Premier Pro. Firstly we downloaded all the clips into the editing software and placed them in order. After placing them in order we reviewed the clips and cut the parts that didn't fit in. For example the establishing shot at the beginning shook as the camera panned round. This was because we didn't have the correct tripod to use. We cut the part where the camera shook so the clip looked more professional. After cutting certain scenes we then went on to edit the flashback clip where we firstly changed the coloring to black and white. This is to make it more obvious to the audience that they clip is not part of the ordinary dialogue. We also edited part of the flashback in slow motion to create suspense. After editing the flashback we realized there wasn't a steady flow in the straight cut from the flashback to the dialogue, so we chose to add a dissolve in between the two. We also added a dissolve at the start to set the scene and added a fade at the end. Unfortunately we could not edit out the ambient sound in the background affecting the dialogue but we have noted this to make sure there is none in our thriller.
