Postproduction Of My Movie Project- Cuts



 After spending days filming and organizing everything, my production phase has finally come to an end. The next step is postproduction. In this phase I'll be spending the majority of my time editing, adjusting the music and sound.

Through the next couple of blogs, I'll be showing you all of the steps and highlighting key moments of my editing phase. The app I'll be using for editing my movie is called 'Filmora'.


CUTS AND TRANSITIONS


As I began my final phase, the first thing I decided to concentrate on is general editing or adjusting and making the perfect cuts. In the app, I've used the transition option, where I can create a lot of crucial jump cuts, the ones I've used the most throughout the whole movie. 

The reason I've used a lot of jump cuts is that I wanted to make the story movie quicker and for action to take place faster so that the viewers feel the tension building up and are prepared that every scene is going to escalate gradually. The pictures below show two jump cuts between two scenes.



After the majority of jump cuts filling the action part of the movie, towards the ending I wanted to try something different. So, I decided to add 'dizzy' effect to the characters thinking. Everytime the character thinks or feels like this has already happened to him, the dizzy effect is added, which makes it more effective. 

This was hard to achieve, but after watching an enormous amount of YouTube videos, I finally did it. This is how it turned out:




Furthermore, the next couple of jump cuts are pretty quick, and are made in a way that when the character closes his eyes and swallows the pill, we quickly transition to him laying on the bed. After that we again transition to him sitting in the same position as he was in when he took the pill. The pictures below show these cuts.

Production Of My Film Project- Part 2

 2. PROPS Props were crucial in every scene of the movie. All the way from drinks to the smallest details, like candles on the bar table. In this post,  I'll lead you through my prop list and set design that in this case includes lighting and colour combinations. For two of my characters, Zara and Tom, smoking was important, because that complemented Zara's and Tom's characters. None of the actors are smokers in real life, so I decided to make 'fake cigarettes' based on actors' needs. I filled cigarette filters with dried parsley that is more or less healthy and has the same burning effect as real cigarettes. Here's the video tutorial that I've followed:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFyN43HEC4s&t=45s The drinks that each of my characters drank were fake. For example, the beer, that Harry drank, was apple juice that was in a beer bottle. This made the character look reckless and manly. Zara drank Gin tonic, which was mineral water with ice in it. ...
