Progress

Today me and my group stayed after school in order to complete our editing and make sure we get it to a high standard like we had before the burglary. We had struggled over the past few days with maintaining all the work we had to do in such little time. In terms of editing our sequence we are half way done, so we mainly worked on sound  and Nicola started editing our behind the scenes footage. We created good music for the part when the main girl and boy are getting ready but we struggled creating music for the party scene as it kept turning into too much like club music, and this is not something we wanted for our opening sequence. Therefore, we have tried to find some copyright free music which is more of a party sound than a club, which would also suit our genre of a coming to age/ romantic film. 

The music we had found for the girl and boy getting ready I thought was well suited because it was not only ideal for what a boy may listen to, but also a girl. Originally, we had created music similar to Legally Blonde but we were not happy with it as it turned out to be too girly, and therefore when inter-cutting with the guys parts, the music did not appear to suit with his actions. Therefore, the current music we created is much better and fits in nicely with our footage, shots and genre. 

Over the next couple of lessons we are aiming to complete our editing of the opening sequence and edit the sound onto our footage. We also need to compete our credits and figure out where they would be best to put into our sequence (i.e.. the beginning or just before the end of the whole sequence).
