Molly and I have just finished our first edit for our film opening. We uploaded the police voice over to it and cut it down by a few seconds to ensure it fitted perfectly. We decided that making the voice come in seconds before the first shot came in would be more effective as I have seen it done in films such as the Bourne films and Shooter. This engages the audience and briefly sets the scene. We then made sure the voice over went over the first countdown timer footage to create tension and linkthe two parts together better. The voice over is still playing over the first scene where our actress is sitting by the tree and as the voice over is seconds from finsihing, the music starts to play and then takes the dominant position in the shot.
Next we will look at the opening again tomorrow and make sure everything is perfect for the first edit deadline on Friday.
