RESEARCH- Arlington road

                                       This was my final re-edited version of Arlington road

Editing:
This lesson we were introduced to final cut pro which is a programme that allows you to trim, add effects and overall edit something in an easy and capable way that if done correctly can look professional and realistic. The whole class had to re-edit their own versions of the opening 'Arlington Road' this meant we had to position the clips in what we thought worked and cut and trim them the way we wanted. We also learnt  how to add titles, wether they were intercut or superimposed. For my final version i decided to have the titles super imposed as this fit the theme of mystery and suspension the opening presented, unlike for example having titles over a black screen which may be more suitable for a horror opening.

Sound:
We then learnt how to add music and other sound effects such as foley sounds using the programme sound track pro. Foley sounds are sounds that are imposed on to the footage but were made at a different point, for example footsteps in films are most likely foley and the sound is added afterwards to get the pitch and effect more realistic. The whole class experimented with them and personally doing this resulted with me using music for the  opening rather then any foley sounds, the music i used was quite a slow tempo with the sound of various percussions, however it wasn't until after i had uploaded this that i realised the sound did not play and something must have gone wrong technically.
