Tuesday 2nd February 2010, Final lesson

For our final lesson, the main task was to complete the editing. The group had already completed most of the editing the final thing to do on the video was to add some effects to help the video flow better, and to engage the audience.

Firstly, we added a black and white effect, not only did this remove the glare from the lighting that we did not want, but it also made the whole scene appear more sinister. This sinister feel again engages the audience and gives them a warning that something bad may happen to the pizza boy character. We also decided to add some disolves to the video, to help the flow and feel. We could have used all straight cuts, however we decided that the end product may look messy and this was not the effect that we wanted for our final product, instead we used some fades as well as dissolves.

After we had completed the video with the desired effects our only task left was to upload the video to YouTube and embed the link into the blog.

Overall I feel that the video works extremely well. Although some of the shots we use do not remain consistant this is not extremely noticeable, and the black and white effect that we used help remove lighting errors we had such as glare, and characters appearing too colourful in what was supposed to be a dark and spooky scene.
