Upon completion of filming the footage, all the footage was uploaded onto the computer and exported into iMovie where we then watched all the footage. Clips were were ordered into its first rough cut. After several hours of fine trimming clips and editing, a first cut of our film was produced.
The next task in hand was to work on lighting and sound editing to compliment the project. This was tricky because of balancing sound waves throughout the film without compromising the monologue for the film in any way. Through most of the film the music we added was overpowering and rendered the monologue inferior, so to overcome this the sound level was increased for the monologue and reduced for the music to allow it to be gently heard in the background whilst the monologue took place. This was effective as it allowed the monologue to be heard clearly whilst the music could be heard in the background gently.
Lighting was the other main feature of the film that we had to address. As the film was shot over a lengthy period and the conditions had changed throughout, the lighting was inconsistent at certain points. As the plan was to create our film in black and white, it reduced the effect of this lighting issue and by adjusting the temperature of the clip and also the saturation. This was effective because it added a sense of continuity to the mise en scène of the clip and also made it aesthetically pleasing
