Beta Editing #2

In a usual system to the past, 3 days on from filming our production for the second time we decided to take ourselves onto the editing process once again. The Breaking the 4th Wall production team took ourselves to the media suite in search of an iMac to edit our footage upon. Having reviewed our previous edit last week and identified a number of different errors within the shots, edit and soundtrack that we had included we had a more clear understanding of what it was that would become something we would have to correct, knowing this we took extra care within editing our footage and made sure we did it too the best of our ability.

We stuck by the same guidelines that we set ourselves last week in terms of editing, these were - 

 We also had to try and make the soundtrack/score suit the actual footage itself, in order to have the score working to its optimum effect we needed to try and make the beats create tension by simulating it to the camera shots and speeding up the cuts as the beats increase to try and create more tension and race the heartbeat of the audience.

Earlier on during the course Jordan, who is the creative hub of the group took it upon himself to create some opening titles for the production, these can been seen in the video below. These titles took him a very long period of time to create and I believe that it is shown in the professionalism they give off to the audience. They have a very authentic and almost blockbuster feel to them and really get the audience's opinion off the overall authenticity of the production a lot higher and lets the audience feel more enticed into what they are about to be shown. These during the opening seconds of the production so the placement has been thought out to entice the audience correctly so that they have a higher opinion of it whilst watching the actual footage.

Here at Breaking the 4th Wall productions, we all feel that this edit reflects hugely the progress that has been made over the past weeks in terms of the improvement with the quality that we are producing. This is shown in the video above, this atmosphere that is being created in this edit is so much more advanced than in the previous edit, this we feel is simply down to the hard work we have put into this production, rather than leaving it after the first edit we have persisted with it until we are starting to see improvements. We will continue to edit until we feel the production has reached a stage at which it cannot move any more and is the best it can possibly be. When we reach this stage we feel we will be able to submit it confident that we will reach the highest possible mark bands for our efforts.
