Editing - Day 3

Today we added some sound to our trailer, some parts we found to be highly effective due to the tempo and volume of the sound fitting into the clips we had.  We got a basic set up of the scenes and sound to go with them but soon realise dthe pace of the trailer was too slow.  This led to us drastically shortening the clips we are using, add more fast cuts with extra shots and changing the sequence of our layout.  After doing these things we added the music back that fits into our major scenes.  The lesson cosisted of constant the shortening of clips, rearranging of clips as well as choosing and changing the sound.  We moved a mantage of a killing flashback to the end because it will end the trailer on a high and the music we have to go with the scene is very effective.  We cganged the length and order of our clips because we felt that an effective teaser trailer should be short, fast and precise.  After applying the changes we made, our trailer was looking a lot faster and much more professional.
The only problem we found we had was that the trailer lacks narrative, the music, collection of shots, and pace was very good, but watching the trailer our teacher and classmates found they did not really know what was going on.  We came to the conclusion that we will add some voice overs during the shots with slower music to give the audience a better idea on whats going on.  We came to this conlusion because we think a voiceover will be more effective and professional than black credit screens.
