Editing Friday 26th March - Wednesday 31st March

The editing for our Thriller was done by myself and began on Friday 26th March, this was the day after all the filming had been finished. The first thing we did was to upload all the footage that we had onto iMovie then from every clip we had imported we had to cut out all the extra clips inbetween, which included footage of an Elvis impersonator.

We then began editing the clips in the order that we wanted them to appear, we started with the shots that were taken outside of the house and Hayley's sister, after this we began editing the part of the open
ing with Hayley in the bath, then the ending with Hayley seeing her sister, falling onto her bed and the flashbacks. After the each scene had been edited to flow with the next we began including transitions and effects to make the flow of the film even better, cross-dissovles were used to show short passages of time without having to show them to the audience and fades were used to show both the starting and the ending of the opening sequence.

We used a black and white effect on all of our flashback shot to show the audience that they have gone back to the past.








After we had completed the editing we went through the opening sequence with our teachers to see what they thought of it and what things they think should be included, they told us what they liked and disliked about the sequence and also what transitions and effects should be added and taken away.
