Editing Log - Entry 3

Footage Layering

I have now edited Chloe's silhouette over 'text scene 1' to eliminate any confusion this could have caused with regard to the identity of Lauren's friend.

I have done this by layering footage of Chloe on top of the footage of Lauren texting and then altering the saturation to make it a silhouette.

Music

I have also been looking to music I could use to convey different moods as this is a key part of making my film understandable. Here are my favourite examples of the ones I looked at.

Sad

This piece is a sad song that I think will be good for the opening scene and the scenes where Lauren is blanking Chloe.

This could be another sad piece that I could use although this may be better for the second park scene where the music doesn't have to be as sad because they make up.

Happy

This piece sounds relatively happy and I think it will be good to use in 'text scene 1.' I want happier music here because I want to show the transition between her being sad or annoyed in the first scene and happy to be talking to her friend in the second. I may use this piece again in the last scene where they walk into the common room together but I might choose a different piece.
