Construction 3: Editing the Footage




We edited our film in Final Cut Express. We did this by capturing the footage and then cutting and editing together the shots onto a timeline. Once we decided that all the shots had been put together correctly, we started to add effects. 

We used was sepia constantly, adding it to every clip to make the film look a little bit more sinister, we changed the saturation of the sepia so that it was not too drastic an effect.

We used sepia again in the flashback scene, though this time we used a high saturation, to give the effect that the scene was set a long time ago. We also used a transition to make the scene fade back into real time. 

For the indent and opening film titles we used a black background with white typewriter effect. The reason for such simplicity was so that viewers weren't distracted by elaborate titles, and instead studied the main content of our film.
