Group: Editing Process post-feedback

In our post feedback the two main issues were:

• The length
• The bin in the opening shots - ruining the mise-en-scene.

To eradicate this Tom and I acted on behalf of the whole group and completely cut the first three shots - cutting almost 30 seconds in length and removing the issue surrounding the bin. As a replacement for these opening shots we have including several ECUs of plants - these were initially supposed to be filler shots; however we found that they also set the scene and ambience we are trying to create. To provide a succinct transition into the action we inserted a short black out, with "G4 Productions" fading in. We feel that this is beneficial for the production as a whole as it reduces both time, and liability to lose marks from a mise-en-scene aspect.

 

In regards to further editing, our main concern is now to get the footage into the time frame and so this requires cutting footage and speeding some shots up. Also, we are yet to fully complete the sound editing to make it appear more diegetic and seamless however this is a process that could potentially be a very quick job.
