Postproduction: Visual Editing Decisions

 Introduction

Welcome Cambridge dream team! In this post, our production team began our editing process after filming all the shots necessary to piece together the scenes that we have captured so far, and below shows a range of the visual decisions that were made in preparation for later sound, transitions, and special effects that will be added on. Our film used numerous of the features and functions available on CapCut's editing software such as text-overs, editing in the logo (inserting images into the film), glitches, and fades/ black screen. Below are photos and images that demonstrate our group's usage of the CapCut features accessible to editors. 

Our group used our camera editing application to apply shadows to this image, and with brighter lighting to emphasize small details and different colors in the drawing, and background, for a bright, vibrant tone- which contrasts with the horrifying reality of the film.

In this image, Peyton P used her editing skills to her advantage, and due to prior years of experience working with CapCut’s software, she was simply able to apply a yellowish, dark tone to create a subtle unfamiliar, saturated, and unsettling world of film. This scene includes Mercedes being stalked by Christine on her way to the bathroom.
