Editing the intro
After importing all the footage which we gathered from the first shoot it was time to edit to the storyboard. The first shot is a close up on a piece of corn which is soon followed by a figure walking past. I decided to put in a transformation between two shots to show the character instead of just letting the shots roll . This way the audience need to pay attention to see what i happening more. At first i didnt think it would work but once lowing the down the speed percentage of the shot on video 2. The duration was then spread out for 3 seconds but i lowered the speed duration down to 80%. This had a good result as it fitted well into the flow of the footage and it also gave a bit of extra time for the audience to realise what was going on.
The next few screen shots show the continuity of the shoots as each angle shows the process of the man making his way to the tree. Each shot instantly makes the audience feel that the man is isolated and lonely. This is what we wanted as the way we have edited the shots with continuity editing with different cuts slowly starts to develop the narrative. The shot have been edited so that no shot is on the screen for longer than 3 seconds. As the music hasn't started yet we don't want the shots to be too long as we may loose the interest of the audience.
This screen shot shows the transition I put in to show the transition from the narrative Ollie to band Ollie. The transition I used was called a cross dissolve which faded one shot into another whilst the the first shot is still on the screen. This helped show the connection between the two different shots. This was a succesull transition and has resulted in positive feedback as well with comments such as "good transition", "shows the connection between the band and the narrative". This is what I was hoping to hear.
Overall so far the editing is a success and there hasn't been any major problems so far.
