Editing Stage- What We Did

The next stage after uploading our film was to make a start on the editing. I thought that this was the most important part because we can make our film turn out the way we want it to.
After shooting our preliminary task and editing it, we only knew the very basics of editing. We managed to get more used to final cut pro during our preliminary task so we managed to work alot quicker with our thriller opening.
First of all, we started to choose shots that we were sure of using for our opening and getting rid of the ones that we don't want. Afterwards, we had to cut down certain shots so that the shot will flow with the next. This makes the film look more professional, as you can see we used that method alot for our film.
We also had to make sure that certain shots were put together made sense because certain objects would be in a different position, and we wanted the film to run smoothly rather than the film being really jumpy when it came to the editing.
We also had to make some scenes darker by messing around with the contrast. By making the screen darker, it gives more of an effect on the audience.
