Editing Our Opening Sequence


We began by arranging our clips into the order in which we wanted them. We then added 'Locked Out Of Heaven' by Bruno Mars as we thought that song gave the right effect to our film. We wanted a happy, upbeat song as it would make Lucy appear relaxed and therefore more vulnerable.

We then used motion in the tabs settings to keyframe a post zoom on the radio.

We then coloured the footage to give it a more professional, cinematic effect and made it widescreen to further enhance that.

We then created a title using the text tool. We put it on V3 so that it enabled the video to still be shown behind the text.

We found adding the radio quite hard as we didn't have it on during filming due to the fact the continuity would not have been right so we had to add it on and ensure that it sounded realistic whilst editing.

Once we had fitted the song on to the timeline, we used the Reverberation effect in audio effects to make it seem like the radio was actually playing.

We added a drop shadow to our title to make it stand out better against the dark background.

This is a close up shot of what our title looked like once we had added the shadow and coloured the footage.
