Final day of editing

Was a great final day of editing. I never realized the amount of work we still needed to do. In the end we basically pulled apart all the footage we had, and spent hours on tweaking each piece frame by frame.
We originally had our group name 'Paradox' with a smoke effect. We needed to change this as this had no place in the film. We ended up choosing a kanji symbol 'spirit'. This was designed to give a more foreign look and a little more meaning behind our film without giving the story away.
This is the symbol for 'Spirit'.

We then moved to editing the flashbacks. These needed to be timed and also have a added feature of a filter that was different from the other filter that was on the rest of the film.

 

After this we discussed sound as we had moved along from the original piece we were going to use.

Pastel found a great song from the soundtrack of Naruto Shippuuden Soundtrack - Ochihabune. As soon as we had played the music with the film we knew it was perfect and exactly what we were after.

 

 

By the time we finished on that saturday night it was already 10.30p.m. But it was so worth the extra time of editing. We accomplished what we had set out to do for this project.
