Update on progress

Everyone in the group has played a role in the final parts of the editing that have been completed today. Personally I, sourced and uploaded a new sound for a section of the opening sequence and added it in in the appropriate place. I also worked with Sophie on adjusting the length of one scene and making sure the sound throughout fits well and is effective. We also started work on the evaluation, Sophie and I are working on the first question and Sam and Kieran on the second. These will need to be completed by next week.  

Progress

After deciding that the second half of our opening sequence did not add atmosphere and ruined the effect of the rest of the opening sequence we chose to delete the kitchen scene and come up with a new idea. Kieran and Sam filmed the new idea and began putting it together yesterday. Today Sophie and I added music to the new scene and altered the sound throughout the whole sequence in order to make it more effective as well as tightening up other cuts to improve continuity. 

Progress.

We have been working on adding continuity to the sound and video footage of our opening sequence. We have also added transitions between some scenes and added effects to the flashbacks so that they appear more eerie and contrast with the other scenes, making the flashbacks stand out and so that it's obvious that the two sections of the opening are set in different time periods.Sophie and I have done the main part of editing and the other members of the group have been looking for copy right free music to add atmosphere to the clip.  

My contribution

As a group we have completed the filming for our opening sequence. Two members of the group have now been assigned to filming the final scene we have previously been prevented from filming due to bad weather conditions. Sophie and I have completed all of the edtiting for the draft version of our opening sequence but will still need to polish, for example the heartbeat sound needs to be smoother.
