Editing Our Film

We have began to edit the film we have done so far- we used a setting of a decrepit church background to add to the Mise en scene. It also goes with the codes and conventions of a gothic thriller.  Our actor wore a top hat and a black suit jacket to create a sense of mystery about his character which is needed to keep to the plot unambiguous and rather obvious to the audience. To edit this we used iMovie as we already had some previous experience with the software and knew how to use it.

We had changed the saturation of the images to back them black and white to make the film look more authentic as it was set back when coloured film would not have been possible.

We also in some parts had changed the pace to slow down the rate of movement. This added to the tension and increased the level of atmosphere. the audience would be anticipating something bad to happen.
