Editing My Fingers To The Bone

Editing My Fingers To The Bone

Today there was a teachers strike which caused the school to close. The school was open for sixth formers which meant this afternoon I could go in and edit. This was good as I managed to pretty much get finished although it was creepily quiet sat in a class room on my own and the school was silent. The plan was to upload the rough copy of my video but as I stayed until the end of the school day I was warned that if I stayed much longer I would get locked inside the school so I didn't have the chance to upload it and I will do that on Monday instead. 

When I first got logged on to the computer there was a problem with the computer's audio so I decided to do some editing that didn't involve sound. I added a black and white effect to each of my individual clips. This really set the scene as the brief requested it to be dark. I wanted to film in the light as the camera becomes grainy when you film in the dark so by adding a black and white effect the quality is still to a high standard but it still has a sinister effect to it. 

I then added in titles to my clips. I selected the typography as I thought it reflected the theme of the video and it just worked well.

Here is a screenshot of the start of my video where I took inspiration from the film Reservoir Dogs.
