Editing

While we were editing our opening sequence we found some new effects and me and louise both came a lot more confident and I think our final edit ended up looking good. On our past projects we  realised that we used the fade in and fade out effect to much and this stop the sequence from flowing as well as it could have. For this piece of work we only used the fade effects when it was necessary and made sure it was more fast paced to fit with the chase scene which opened our sequence.

When me and louise were filming we made sure that it would be better if we filmed too many shots for too long rather than too shot ones. This made the editing of each clip a lot easier. For example when it came to the short dialogue scenes we made sure we started filming a few seconds before the dialogue was introduced so when we added all the dialogue sections together it flowed better and didn't cut any of the speech off like we had done in past projects. Me and Louise both came a lot more confident with the programme and were able to improve the clip each time we edited it and managed to tighten up the cuts and make sure the continuity was as good as we could possibly get it.

We also found that we still had some problem with fitting to the 180 degree rule and this effected our continuity in some of the running clips that we had shot. But in the end we were able to flip the two clips that didn't fit to this rule and in the end all the running scenes seemed to flow really well and we were pleased with the pace and the way we had edited the chase scene.
