Programmes used to edit

For our opening sequence to be complete, we needed to use many different websites, products and cameras. The main source for post and pre production was Final cut pro. This was what we used to edit and add all our shot on to create our successful opening sequence.

The equipment usedThe computers we used to edit and unload our opening sequence eon to were the Mac’s

This is the Camera we used to film all of our footage for the opening sequence of FOUND. The Tripod was also used to create stability and balance through all of our shots. Some of the shots were filmed free hand, however the majority were used on the Tripod.

This is myself editing some of our shots on Final cut Pro

The software we used was final cut Pro. In the picture we can see that final cut Pro is up on the screen and this is what we used to pull our opening sequence together once we had filmed all of our shots.

We first learnt how to use Final cut Pro when doing our prelim task. This is where we picked up the basic skill of how t cut, edit and add effects to the footage we had filmed. This really helped us leading in to our final opening because we became

more efficient and could fin the edits and effects we wanted more easily. Below is an image from our prelim task and then a still from our final edit to show how we

transitioned from basic skill to a full opening sequence.

Using final cut pro was really amazing and it helped us a lot to make our opening look as professional as possible. With final cut we were able to achieve continuity very well throughout our opening sequence. The

music and sound effects on the software also had great editing skills to make things seem quieter/louder and even fade In and out. As you can see we have been able to add effects and a variety of Camera angles.

This screen shot of our editing on Final Cut Pro is to show the editing effects we used. We were able to use different effects to enhance the image of our shots, create higher definition and also make a bigger shadow. This allowed us to really make our Opening sequence as eerie as possible and to fit

with the Genre of a psychological thriller. By adding background shadows and enhancing this shot we wee able to make it stand out more and create suspense for the target audience

This is an annotation of our Company Ident. Using final cut pro we were able to create a very professional looking company ident. This meant

that by using the software we were able to make our opening sequence look as real to the professional ones as possible. This is why we used

Final cut pro to help with our opening sequence creation.

Here are the effects we were able to use on Final cut. These allowed us to use animations for the Ident to swoop in from one side. Making it like a line effect that connotes being trapped or imprisoned.

Here is the company ident we used and created using Final cut Pro

Here is the website we used to get our Copyright free sound effects from. This

enabled us to use the music we wanted to fit our genre without being copy right.
