Editing 17/02/17

During the half-term, Morgan and I came to school to edit our work and Yasmin didn't come. First we broke up all the audio of her and I talking so it would be easier to place it where we wanted. We then successfully layered the sound. At some parts, it sounded too loud so we lowered the sound of some of the speaking parts, but it sounded messy when the handheld clips played, because we had the orchestral music, the diegetic sound and the recording of Morgan and I speaking. To overcome this, we got rid of the sound in all the handheld clips, except the first one of me on the slide. This is because the music is very quiet at that point and there is no voice over. Also, in this clip we are laughing and this shows the contrast between the fun the girls were having to the serious situation they are now in.  Another part where we got rid of sound was the panning of the inboard as we diegetic sound isn't needed there because there is no movement of the detective.

After we finished with the sound, we noticed our sequence was only 1:41minutes. We added another clip of the detective underlining the fact that Yasmin had problems with her dad. We wanted this to stand out because it may confuse the audience and make them question whether her dad had anything to do with her disappearance.

We were only up to 1:44, and still needed 16 seconds. Morgan had the idea of having a blank screen and audio playing in the background, so I added another handheld clip and put a black screen over it and played this for 8seconds. 8 seconds may sound like a lot but it gives the audience time to take in whats happening even though they can not see. The clip we used is when we say bye to Yasmin just before she leaves. The fact that the audience don't see her leaving intrigues them as they want to have the full picture as to what happened. There is one second of silence at the end of this black screen and we did this to mimic her kidnap or disappearance as we don't know what happened, no one was there, like it was done in silence. We also added 8 seconds at the end for the title to come up.
