This was our final stage of editing where we had added more scenes into the trailer and cut certain ones. Above is the timeline, which shows how many different scenes we had edited and timed the scene carefully due to how many seconds it would play for. By this point we found it more difficult and stressful to try and get everything in place and sorted. For example, even though we had our timeline shots in place, we still needed to find a suitable soundtrack and add the typogaphy created on another computer which needed to be transferrred. The typography was done on another program called Adobe After Effects, which is discussed in earlier posts, and also allowed us to keep consistency within the trailer and film poster by using the same font. Once that was put into place it was now time to find music that would match the trailer. This would go below the shots in the timeline, where we would start to edit the soundtrack and place certain 'booms' or 'whispers' under the shot it matched with. This was quite confusing to do because we were cutting and pasting the soundtrack each into 1 or 2 second parts.
At the end when the soundtrack had been put into place we watched the trailer. The editing was smooth at first and then sped up dramatically which is what we intended. Overall using Adobe helped us create our trailer just how we planned. Parts of editing were not easy, but seeing the end result actually made all the hard work pay off.
