Our Editing Plan - What We Need To Fix

     Hello! In this blog, I will be going over what my group and I need to fix for our movie. The first major thing that we need to fix is the length of our movie. Our movie was way too long and we needed to find a way to shorten it to it's appropriate length. We had to go through the scenes and figure out what scenes we can cut that will not effect the story too much. We figured that we may cut some of the beginning scenes that we shot outside because they are not that relevant. We also may cut some of the unnecessary scenes of dialogue that are in the film because that just wastes time. We also need to add some music to the scenes. The music that we want to add are creepy and ominous sounds. We want to create different tones between certain scenes in the movie through the music. By this I mean that we want to have a more fast paced and fun music in the beginning of the film when the characters are having fun. In these scenes, we want to create a more care free and silly tone. Then, later in the film, we want to create a more serious tone for when things become more spooky. The type of music that we want to use for these scenes are more high pitched piano and violin sounds. We also need to add some sounds within the movie. These sounds are just things that we can't get naturally such as doors screeching when they are opening. We also want more ambient noises for the outside scenes instead of the wind that was picked up. The last thing that we need to fix in the movie is the how choppy it is. The movie is insanely choppy and we can fix that by adding a better transitions. Some scenes look good when they are cut apart from each other, but some just look messy. In order to fix some of these scenes, we will most likely have to reshoot a couple of scenes. With reshoots, we will be able to shorten some scenes that were too long and we will be able make the scenes flow together more smoothly.
