No Time, No Space

Here is the final group edit of our one shot film, which was made by me, Ollie, Beth & Jason.
We booked out the equipment and then headed for the bridge that overlooks Upper Parliament Street near the Victoria Shopping Centre, we set up our tripod and video camera and started recording.


After this we transferred the footage onto the pc and began the editing of effects, we sped the footage up by 1300% and then added ghosting effect, zoom blur effect, and a lighting effect with a yellow tint.


Music was then added to the film.


We then came up with a new theme to the film which was one of A Greater Intelligence watching the human race; this gave a better narrative to the film.


With the film being shot as if someone is watching over us, the film give's a sense of Voyeurism, which was used in Alfred Hitchcock’s, 1954 film, Rear Window, where a man was spying on his neighbors from his Rear Window, and the film is mainly shot from the main characters view.
We added a short speech over the video and then exported it.


As a whole I think the video works well and as a good narrative to it and I enjoyed working on this project.

This is our the video that my group (Me, Ollie, Beth and Jason) shot, I decided to do a short version as I had an idea for it, I added some narration that was influenced by the speech at the start of War Of The Worlds.


I found a site that had a voice generator on so that I could make the narration and then added some busy street sound fix a well, I then added a few effects to it which I think worked well but there is defiantly room for improvement.


Overall I enjoyed doing the task but it was quite hard to make something like this as it is the first time I have used premiere for video editing.


I will take this as a learning step and will look into premier in more detail during my spare time and then see if I can improve upon this video.
