Editing

This is how far on into editing our group has got in 3 weeks, whilst we are editing we are also coming up with more ideas that we could include into the gaps we have got. The locations that we have used so far are the beach and the park and we have chose these because they represent different places where the female and her ex used to go together. When placing all the clips together we have decided that fades and dissolves are the edits/transitions that we have used more as this implies that everything the female used to have has faded away.

This is our music video nearly complete, we have to record some more footage of the female and the male which we are then going to fade out the male so that this shows the memories of him are all fading away.

 

The edits we have used and why:

• additive dissolve - we chose this because it faded the two images together but while you could still see the previous clip transparent underneath the other clip.
• fade through transparent - we chose this because it was a clear fade, and it faded two clips togther nicely and it didnt look rushed or jumped. It could also show that all the memories are fading away
• sepia - we chose this because it is to show the audience that it is old . We put this edit onto the clips of the female stood looking at the statue thinking about her ex.
• Black and white - we chose this because it matches the emotion of the song, and matches the lyrics ''and the night is young, but time is old'' when the female is walking down the beach towards the sea which shows her slowly fading away as time goes by.
