Blog 40: Editing Day 3 (Final)

Editing 

    Hey guys! Welcome, welcome to the last part of editing! You must be "wow". Yes, we spent 3 after-school days editing this film. We spent around more than 12 hours to edit and did some last touch on our final product. 

    On the 3rd day of editing, we're depressed at this point but still happy than ever to get this to its best form. We picked up where we left of. After satisfied with our smoky white/gray background. We inserted it into our CapCut's project and decide on which color our title should be. We decided to use the same color as the birthday cake, a solid brown with the same font "pinyon". After that, we just added a little effect, letting it float in naturally. In addition, we also added a little smokey effect to create the 3D looks. Originally, I thought that leaving the sound part to Day 3 would be a brilliant idea because it won't take as much time. Just extract, insert the sounds. BOOM, DONE!!

 However, life doesn't always goes as it is. It took us another 4-5hrs of editing to get these sounds in shape. First, we extracted Spiderwoman's product,  her own singing. However, we don't want to start the film off with a song so we added a little bird chirp to enhance the atmosphere. As Gigi comes in, the sound track gradually comes in from lower volume. Additionally, we use the same technique to transit to our main plot twist. As the sound gradually dissolve, the diegetic sounds will come in as Gigi's ring tone and dad's voice chat played its role in twisting the story. To enhance the dramatic atmosphere of her dad sudden absent, we add a "striking" song as Gigi's showcasing her disappointment and exit her room. The melody flow, blend and cut out with Gigi's blowing the cake into the final since with or title "Eighteenth"
