Editing

To edit our movie trailer, we chose to user Adobe Premier 4.0 . Although initially struggling to upload and succesfully edit parts of our film, after a while we fixed the problem and were able to remove parts that were un-needed, as we had too much footage and it was not all of good quality so it was quite easy for us to agree which bits to take out. At this stage we also researched the types of music or sound effects that were used in popular horror trailers. Using the software and uncopywrited (freeplaymusic.com) music found we were able to place the music and sound effects over the top of our film and choose where to place it in order to gain maximum effect whilst continuing the story. The first scene that we edited on this software was the opening scene in the woodlands where we reduced the lentgh of some of the shots as to fit with the conventions of a traditional trailer, with many short snappy shots, although had to leave enough within the film as to set the scene and set up the story. Taking this into consideration, I again used the technology to speed up the shots of the 'creepy house' so that more shots could fit in a smaller amount of time
