Finishing touches

We are currently going through the final stages of the editing process by touching uo and tweaking the footage. Jordan from our special effects team thought we had to replace a shot, due it's quality. The decision was made because it "degrades the quality" of the rest of the film opening.

Colour correction

After editing process was near to completetion we reviewed the video and concluded some of the colours weren't as good as they should be. To correct this problem, we knew we had to do some colour correction.
By using Adobe After Effects magic bullet feature we enhanced the quality of the moving image to the point that we felt cormfotable with it.

Touching up on Final Cut

During the Media lesson today, Mr Craddock introduced us to a new feature called Colour Correction. Below are some tutorials and pictures of before and after, when using colour correction.




As you can see by the images, colour correction help to brings out the vibrant colours within a frame. Colour correction makes images look a lot better and clearer

New Title

The plan was to slightly change the titles for Breaking The Fourth Wall, however Jordan being the hard worker he is, produced this stunning title which I find much better.

After this long period of creating our teen horror film we currently on track with current task and should be the deadline.The film opening is almost complete to a good standard therefore we have high hopes of getting a successful product.

Second edit changes

We showed the current footage to Mr Henton to see what recommendation and changes he would suggest to us. Mr Henton said that it was good, but  the assassination of JFK footage wasn't ours so we should start our opening with a detailed description of the clip.  He then went on to say because it was found footage and not out own, we could lose marks because of it.
As a group we took this into consideration, but we have decided to keep the clip and not change it to details.We did this be we think it could completely ruin the effect of the clip.
Another problem that we encountered was the time, Mr Henton said that our clip was too long and we needed to cut it down. To do this Jordan will also removing some clips and shortening others.

Second Edit

We are currently in the final stages of the editing processes. However we wouldn't be here without Jordan due to his hard work and commitment. We now have a much better edit of the almost finished opening to our production "Breaking the 4th Wall". From this as a group we can decided what we to change and add to make it better. During discussion Joe made a very good change that could benefit us because it would save a lot of time.
" I personally think have the titles overlaying the assassination of the president to save time as we're 46 seconds over the allowed time before we'll start losing marks."  I totally agree with what Joe has proposed because it will shorten the time so that we don't lose marks.
