editing day 4

                                              

we chose this as our final logo for our film opening, by looking at many different logos that are in the film making industry at the moment we noticed the most popular style is a basic bold look that will capture they viewers eye.

we chose this as our final logo as we think it meets the criteria of a good logo, it looks professional and classy but goes with the genre of horror and the name we thought was highly appropriate the genre as well.

so we adds this to the beginning of our film.

effects

we then went on to edit the effects using final cut express.

we decided that to create the best effects for our film using sound it would be appropriate to have the music dissolve into each other instead of straight cut music that would look messy, by dissolving the music into each other and having the music so it slowly gets quiet or slowly gets more intense this would make the editing of the sound more professional, and nicer to listen to.

when adding this effect into our film we did this -
For example we used it right at the beginning of the film opening between the change of music from the church bells to the music box this worked well as it softened the music change up so it was unnoticeable.

(fade out dissolve effect)

Another effect we used was the slow down or speed up tool

this was effective as this type of effect adds to the tension of the scene and we thought it would be useful to add into our film opening as we wanted to create as much tension as possible.
we simply did this by changing the amount of time the clip is shown by, increasing or decreasing the number already given.

we used this quite a lot throughout put movie opening, but the most effective part was when tom was walking towards the building and he turned his head back towards the grave yard, we slowed this but back down as it created tension and built up the atmosphere of the scene.

also an effect that was important to our movie opening was adding text. we did this by clicking on the text tool and simply adding the text, we changed the font and the colour of the text appropriate to the clip on the screen at the time so it stood out to the audience.
