Production Blog: Editing

For the editing of this project, Nijah is conducting it. All the group members explained their ideas of how they'd like the video to look. Nijah hopes she can execute everything they want to include to make it a perfect thriller/horror film. The shots that they took during filming were perfect to edit and make smooth transitions between the different scenes. While filming, the group also recorded diegetic sounds that would be edited into the film to create a more eerie sense. Such as a creaking door, or a loud bang on the floor. These sounds contribute to a perfect film. The group discussed the atmosphere they wanted to create, and Nijah was determined to bring those ideas to life through editing. Nijah carefully selected each shot to ensure that the pacing of the film remained intense and suspenseful. Every transition between scenes was carefully planned, with the goal of maintaining tension throughout. The diegetic sounds added an extra layer of realism, pulling the audience into the eerie world the group created. The creaking door sound would be inserted at just the right moment, building anticipation for what’s to come. The bang on the floor would add a jolt, creating a moment of surprise that kept viewers on edge. Nijah is excited to use these sound effects creatively to enhance the horror elements. By combining the visual shots with these sounds, the group hopes to make the audience feel immersed in the story. The editing process has been collaborative, with everyone’s input shaping the final product. With each passing day, Nijah feels more confident that the film will come together just as they envisioned it. The editing has truly brought the film to life, turning raw footage into a chilling, suspenseful thriller. The group can’t wait to see the final product and are hopeful that it will have the impact they want.
