Editing

Final Cut Pro

When we first started our main task, noone had any experience with Final Cut Pro. However looking we quickly got used to the software and felt our editing went well. Whilst editing we made sure we had no continuity errors and the shots flowed well. We did have one problem though, we had to do two re-shoots on different days as there are a few shots of Matt without a dressing gown on then in the next shot he is in the bathroom flushing the toilet and brushing his teeth and he is wearing a dressing gown. We have addressed this matter and felt that as we were sticking to a schedule and still had to do a voice over, add music and credits we were going to use the shots. Final Cut Pro has helped us put the whole thing together, it also gave us an insight into how hard editing can be because each shot needs to run seemlessly to give good continuity. We had some trouble finding un-copyrighted music as every website we went on charged a fee for their music. Therefore Matt decided to write the soundtrack and put it together on Logic Pro. This made our music original and unique for our film. We thought that the music fits our genre of film as it is quite upbeat but at the srtart then on then begins to go quite eerie and sinister which creates tension for the audience at the end. We also tried to reflect the music in Shaun of the Dead.
