FINAL FILM

Making the soundtrack

When making  the track I begun with the violins starting with those high pitched, mysterious notes. Then, soon after the baseline accompanied it. The synth and choir came last when I realised the track needed a crescendo to match the title 'Mia'

Editing

We edited using After Effects. This is a screen shot of a scene in our sequence. At this point we were cutting the scene down as we wanted to make it flow better in the sequence/ We also didn't want to prolong the tension that is already extremely prominent in this part; so by keeping the shot short, it enabled the audience to be in tune with what was happening in this scene, keeping on their toes.

Sign off

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with my group over the past months. Despite the filming and editing process taking longer than expected, I am more than satisfied with the final outcome of our title sequence.

I am also happy with the new set of skills that I have learnt over the period of the course, especially with the knowledge I have gained in Adobe Premiere Pro in terms of editing and use of effects.

If I were to take this course again, I would change my early motivation for the course to try and get the filming started earlier and finished quicker so that there would have been more time spent on editing to further improve the quality of the opening sequence.



Auf Wiedersehen.

Signing off

I have enjoyed working with my group in order to create an exhilarating, exciting and enjoyable title sequence. I enjoyed directing the scenes and making sure that they flowed well and I hope the audience enjoyed it too.
