Post Production

     This week my group and I focused on editing our project. We have come to realise that one of the scenes in our film so far is pointless and unneeded (it is a long sequence of our main character moving into his grandparents house). We have decided to replace it with a new scene. We have not yet decided on the content of our new scene but, we want it to be happy and fast paced.
     Another problem we are having is, we are finding it very hard to find the perfect song for our film. We want a sad song but at the same time we don't want it to be too depressing. We are also going to add wave sounds over the top to add a more calming, atmospheric effect to to scene.
      I think that our first scene however, is very good and it seems to flow well throughout the edits. As a group we think we have achieved a scene that is appropriate to how our character is meant to be feeling. It has a sad depressing atmosphere which matches the feelings of our character. We did find that one part of this sequence needed tweaking. This was when the character is taking his shoes off - we found this took way to long. However, we have found the scene looses its fluidity when we cut out part of this action out.
