Re-edit: Finishing Touches

      After re-shooting, we of course had to re-edit our material. A lot of our material had to be cut out. This was somewhat difficult because while filming we were scared we wouldn't have enough footage so we elongated the take as much as we could. We ended up having to cut full scenes. This made our movie opening go from 3 to 2 characters. That doesn't seem like a big difference but because our film is only 2 minutes, everything is essential. Cutting these parts out made our movie make a little less sense but not by a lot. We ended up switching a lot of things around. This was in order to make it more seamless and perfected. It was really good and ended up being exactly 2 minutes long. This was the exact requirement!
      After perfecting the editing of the scenes, we then had to do music. We had to search for music that would not be copyrighted. This part was a little difficult. However, we eventually found music that fit the exact mood and atmosphere of our movie. It went with the suspense of the movie. It even added to the suspense, in my opinion. If I was watching it for the first time, I would definitely want to watch the rest. After editing in the music, we had to put in the titles. We didn't exactly know how we wanted to do it yet. We started brainstorming ideas for the font, color, size and other things important to adding in titles. We decided on a medium sized font and to do the first name in red and the last name in black.
