The Spies - Editing Practical Final Clip

 This is the clip from the editing practical that I've edited. 

Heres some picture during my editing stage.

This is the cuttinng stages, where I cut up clips and mix it together so that it have an order that make sense. I hoped that we filmed at many different angles and shot types so that when we're editing we can have a more diversed shots which can overall increase the screentime, personally its a bit too short for me which requires me to extend the length of some shots. I also used fade ins for the begining clip so that the sequence can appear smoothly and the same thing with the final clip. Just before the final clip ends, I added a graphic of the title saying "The Spies" on top of the bench and we can see the whole graphic clearer after the final clip have faded into darkness. I also tried to put an fading effect from the middle and fades onto the whole graphic, but it was a little too tricky so I just stuck to a simple fade in.


This is when I was messing around with the color filter tool to get a consistent look between each shots, but then I decided to manually change the colors of each clip to get the orange-ish look so that it looks like how I first envision it.


This is when I was messing around with the sound tool, I imported some footstep noises and organise them in places that would make sense, I mess around with the sound editing tool to change the volume and tone of some of the sounds. I imported a paper shivering sound to simulate the noise of the folder contacting with other object and I also added a background track which fits pretty well with the dramatic spy scenes, even though I wanted a track that sounded more futuristic, I couldn't find any track that fit my liking. I also used some transition effect during my sound editing stages, specifically the sound fades, I used it to add dramatic effect when the folder is delivered by adding a slightly louder and intense track. 



Overall, I think the sequence resembles the group's planning pretty well, like I said before I would want many more shots in different angles so that the clips can have more variety and overall provide more creative approach for the editing stages.
