editing our sequence

While editing our opening sequence we have encountered many problems to overcome and learnt how to do many new things. When filming our sequence we filmed lots of short and snappy frames and after putting them together on final cut we realised to enable the film to run smoothly we could add in transitions such as 'dissolve: fade in, fade out'. The use of transitions definitely made our film look much more fluent and gave the effect we were looking for. Lots of our clips were also too fast, so we used the 'modify, speed' tool to slow them down, and we think all of our clips after being slowed down flow into each other well and emphasize the thriller genre.
