Night Journey - Further Editing

The editing process for our project Night Journey, at first was some-what overwhelming, however once we had gotten underway and created a structure we felt would work, we felt confident in producing a strong enough piece.

This morning, we presented our piece and got positive feedback. The changes that we were advised to take involved things from:

• Taking out images that don't fit, or shots that are generally bad shots.
• Adjusting some of the sound levels such as the soundtrack used.
• Finding a different POV shot to replace the one in which the 3 people see the chain has been pulled.

One of the techniques I used involved layering, and
adjusting the opacity to create a 'dreamy' sequence/shot.
 Positive feedback:

• Good sense of pace.
• The timing of the editing, ranging from the v visuals, to the timing of the voice over.
• Strong opening/ending
• Bold soundtrack/effects
• Strong emotional connection to the main character

Over the next couple of weeks, myself and Fraser will alter the piece to help us achieve a stronger, well rounded piece.
