After collecting all the rushes we needed for our film, we then moved on to the editing process. we knew this was where our film would really come together as lots of the film relies on post production visuals. Some challenges we would face were the use of three different softwares, but so far this hasn't seemed much of a challenge. Calling on my skills from Audition I created a soundtrack to enhance and fit our film to create an atmosphere. I used the sound of Dial up internet, the notification sound from MSN and a few other sounds. When I felt happy with the track i showed Danielle to make sure she was happy with it too, luckily she was. So then came editing day 1.
Firstly, I put all of our rushes into the same folder to make sure the project file could find them all. Then opened a Premier pro project and imported all of the clips. Danielle and I decided to make a list of the order we wanted the film to take so it would speed up the editing process. Once we were happy with our list and order I trimmed down the clips we wanted to use then dragged them onto the timeline. We then had to scale to frame size all the clips and unlink the audio as it is redundant in our film. After this, we then started to cross cut between archive and our own footage and experiment with the video opacity to layer two clips on top of each other. Then we selected which of the robotic voiceover we wanted , and where we wanted them and started placing them on the timeline. As we recorded the robotic voiceover you could hear a lot of background noise, we wanted to make the audio sound as clear as possible so I added exponential fade to each side of the audio clips so I could mask the background noise better. After this we had to adjust the volume levels of the voiceover as she was peaking too much and overriding the soundtrack so we leveled it all out. We were then incredibly happy with the film so we exported it out of Premier Pro into after effects ready to start glitching.
I hope you enjoy. Thank you.
