Improvements/final edit

Once our teacher had studied our piece, he gave us further improvements we could do. We are currently at a grade c/d and personally i don’t i want a better grade for the final piece.
The overall improvements he gave us where:


-Overall slow the piece down and simplify the piece.
-Limit the number of cuts in the second half of footage.
-Fix editing of sounds.
-Allow sound to over lap shots.
-Reposition the titles.


We have also decided to move all the titles to the beginning; we feel our piece would look more professional from this. We also have an idea of doing a voice over the titles. Our initial idea is to have the protagonist reading a poem, or the scrap book, we haven’t yet decided. However this is only an idea, we will experiment and see if it works.


On our deadline one of our members became ill, unfortunately she was the most confident using the software. Besides this, i took matters into my own hands and made it my responsibility to finish as much as possible.
I managed to get 1 minutes work done by myself, but we arranged to meet up during half term to fully complete it together.
When we did this we finally completed it and applied all the further improvements.
