Today I spent 4 hours working on finalising the edits for my film. My primary focus was on sourcing music which would be appropriate for the different scenes in my film. Below are a few shots showing how I began editing the volume of the audio tracks. On at least one occasion, I edited such things as the pitch and distortion of a track to create an eerie and foreboding atmosphere.
Furthermore, on going over the short film, I asked for feedback from a fellow media student who told me that the end credits should go on for longer and raised concern at how she became confused by how one of the characters in my film suddenly starts crying, from having been so happy before. Admittedly, when I planned my film I chose to use a scene where the audience would be made aware of the fact that Alicia's family were killed. When Alicia runs into a field and comes back crying, I intended to use a voice-over of screams calling out for Alicia (her family), which would have tied in with the former scene. Since I don't have the scene, it makes the fact she's crying all the more confusing. I plan on showing my target audience the film tomorrow and if the issue is raised yet again, I will look into making a recording to go over the scene. My only worry is that by adding recorded screams, the audio won't come out as good as I want it to be.
