Editing blog

This blog is mainly about the editing of the film. Today I saw the final product of the film since all the editing was done. I noticed a lot of editing changes were made. A lot of these changes help contribute to some of the aspects of the genre horror. For example, I like how subtle the background music is instead of it being loud and obvious. This is because it helps build anticipation in the film. Before editing, the background music was loud and you could hear it more than the audio. Another thing I noticed was the cleaning up of the transitions. Before when editing even when we tried to clean up the transitions it would still come out choppy. But this time she transitions were clean which helped make the storyline clearer.

Another thing I noticed that changed was the font used in the openings credits. Originally we had planned on using a font from online that resembles the look of slime when spelled out. That was because things like slime are elements that are commonly associated with the genre horror. But we ended up just using a plain white font. The reason for this was because of the sudden closing of school due to the coronavirus. Also known as COVID-19, is an infectious disease caused by a new virus. This meant that we didn’t have laptops or the proper editing software to fully complete the editing process the way we were doing it class. So we had to use outside editing software’s that were very limited like iMovie. But despite, the rest of the editing was good which in turn helped contribute to the production of the film. I think this the film still turned out really well.
