Today we went back to editing our title sequence and did some more work on it. It is beginning to take shape and look slick. We changed a few things to make it look better and more professional during the editing session. We have managed to get to the last scene of our sequence where the spy is posioned within the restaurant filmed at the William Bray. The main problem that we had was editing the middle section of the sequence. The middle of our prelim needed some attention due to small yet significant things for example; people coming and going into the frame and it not flowing properly due to different body movement and position whilst trying to create continuity. Instead of just concentrating on these small errors and dwelling on the fact that our piece was slightly wrong, we decided to move on and come back to it at a later date once the main structure was securely in place and then we would begin to pay attention to detail. Also during the session we completed editing the scene where we have the chefs working in the kitchen and the spys sat at the table next door in the restaurant. We have completed the cross cutting between the poison arriving at the restaurant and the chefs preparing food in the kitchen, this proved to be one of the most complicated feets of our editing so far so i am glad that we completed this and i was pleased with our progress. We have also got lots of shots of the actual working chefs at the William Bray cooking different foods and preparing oblivious, like nothings going to happen. This makes it all look very natural.
These photos were taken whilst in the editing sweet today. Chessie (Top Right) has stepped forward naturally as the most confident editor in our group. I personally am not paticularly good with the technology so initially Final Cut Pro was difficult for me, yet working with Chessie means that i have learnt how to edit effectively and i can now take part in the editing process.
