Editing 1


Editing so far has been really enjoyable, its very interesting and exciting watching your footage transform from lots of different clips to one flowing piece, its also exciting to see what we have been working towards all this time finally come together.

So as a group we decided that our piece should show innocence and beauty of the ballerina and the ballet. So the editing plays a huge role in achieving this concept. So far we have created our initial footage to not giving anything away, only showing parts of her costume and her body like hands and feet, we then move into a extreme close up of her face to see the detail on concentration. We then move to regular close up to give a fuller, clearer image and finally a full body shot, we thought this is effective because only showing parts of her body foreshadows later parts of the film and it indulges the audience as they want to see her face, it also slowly introduces our character in a elegant way reflecting the dance.

We thought cross cutting the footage together would be the most appropriate for our thriller, as it is sophisticated, neat and subtle, ensuring that no attention is drawn from the ballerina.

This is what we have created so far:
