I have now been editing for 2 weeks and have managed to get together a rough cut that I have also now shortened to around 3 minutes. I have mainly focused on the opening scene - the murder in the woods. This scene is now 1 minute longer so, depending on the rest of the opening, will probably be shortened by another 5-10 seconds. This scene also still requires form close editing that I will complete when I have the music in place as well so that the rhythm of the music fits with the rhythm of the editing.
So far I have been using the 50s TV effect on final cut pro on all of my clips, this has further emphasised the style of the film and the time period it is set in. However, having played around with the colours and saturation of one clip I found that the black and white may look better and more stylish if I just turned down the saturation of each clip to turn it black and white. I will experiment with these two ideas and audition clips so that I can decide later on which method I will use.
Overall so far I am happy with how my editing is going and the footage that I took, so I will continue to edit the whole sequence and will start to find a piece of music that I can use.
