Editing

When we started to edit our video we first I had to import the clips we needed from the camera and filter out any which we didn't needed (since we filmed extra to make sure) we uploaded the song into the editing timeline and started slowly putting the different clips together.
Once we were happy with the rough cut, we decided to test out effects and transitions that would improve the video. We decided on several 'fade' effects and since the song was quite sad we decided to include effects to match the narrative of the story.


We decided to use a 'Black and White' effect (that I looked into in previous posts) once the narrative in our film reached it's depressing plot line. This was so it was it would relate the audience, because they would see how it was affecting the character and would be empathic towards him. Below is a clip from Adobe Premier pro, showing the effects we used such as "Cross dissolve" and "Fade" and how it links the clips together.
