Editing process

I used Adobe Premiere and Adobe After

effects in order to edit the footage for the

film trailer. I used premiere to make the

basic timeline, and after effects to edit clips

in more detail.

I sorted the files into the composition of Adobe premiere.

This allows me to get files and drag them onto my

timeline. I made many files regarding different

components as it will be easier to locate. For example,

the intro of the movie, film day one and two are in separate folders. I also included a folder for the sounds.

Here is a screenshot of the effects and pre-sets in Adobe premiere.

These are little tweaks which can be used and dragged into the

either video or audio. I used some of these in order to make the

trailer look more professional. For example under the video effects there is a ‘levels’ component.

This helped me make the lighting change so in the dark clips, I used

this to make it clearer and as if more lighting was there.

Here is the timeline, I have many layers for both audio and video.

Original Edited

When clicking a layer,

there is a screen which

shows the effect

controls, meteda and

the source (video). As

you can see the file

MV1_2092 is currently

under the effects

control. This allows me

to adjust the video in

many ways. The

opacity, size, colour,

blueness and much more.

When clicking on audio files, a similar window

pops up. This window contains the effects control

for the sound files. I can control how to fade the

sounds, or make the volume decrease. I can

overlap sounds or even change the frequency

levels. I made sure to learn how to use the effects

control as I will need to overlap some sounds over

others. For instance when vocals need to be

heard over the soundtrack, I will decrease the

soundtrack.

I used Adobe after effects in order to create the POV type of effect

I first imported the files just like I would with Adobe premiere, however this time I

downloaded a film recording template which looks like this.

I inserted this template to the video clips I wanted to make look as if they were recorded off

a handheld camera. To make it even more realistic, I also added a red circle on the video

which flashes during the clip making it seem as if it is live.

In the effects and pre-sets, I added a night vision effect and

managed the opacity to zero. This made the quality of the shot

look less and emphasizes the hand held camera look.

I also added a sound of a television glitch and inserted a data glitch video. This is simply

when the channel is changed a fuzzy noise and look is played. I inserted these into a range

of my clips to even make the hand held shots seem more realistic.
