Editing Blog: Adding Scenes + Making Changes

 Hey guys and welcome back to my final production blog! You previously heard how I had my friends peer-review what I had for my short film so far. In the next blog, I post you guys will finally get to see the finishing product. In this blog I will tell you about the process I went through re-editing. I decided to re-edit because not only did we film more stuff but we also got feedback. I continued editing on the app CapCut on my phone because it was so easy to work with. First, I added in the new ending that we came up with. When editing though, I realized that the ending was kind of short. So throughout the rest of my editing I knew I had to make up for the timing in the titles. I made sure that I used the same effects on all the titles except for one. The one title that had a different effect was the actual title of the movie. I wanted to use a different effect for the title because I wanted to add a more enhanced glitch effect and the reason I did this is because I really want the viewers to see the correlation between the title of the movie and the effects. I also just came up with fake names for each of the titles except the 3 actors because I didn't like the idea of repeating names so I changed that as well. Also, I used a strobe glitch effect when transitioning to each new scene. I took into consideration the feedback I got about the titles being back to back. So I tried to fix the problem by spacing the titles out more. I also tried to cut out some titles that weren't 100% required. But like I said, I did this to the best of my ability because I also had to make sure we were meeting the ideal time. I also took into consideration the amber alert scene and I added in an actual amber alert notification and I also added in an amber alert sound effect for that scene to enhance the idea like the feedback asked. Thank you guys for reading my final production blog, be back where "The Glitch" will be born!
