Final Opening sequence-Beneath the Surface

Review of draft

After looking at my draft of my opening sequence I have come to the conclusion that I need to work on the timing of my shots as many shots appeared abruptly and didn't fit in with the audio (this most likely happened due to the fact that my video editing software has a lagging issue and therefore it is difficult to be precise). I also plan to extend some shots.

Rough Draft

Diagetic Audio Editing

During editing I came to the realisation that I didn't have decent audio for some of my clips as they required the victim gaspng/panting (which they didn't). To overcome this without refilming footage I copied some of the audio from another clip which did feature panting into the clips that required audio.



Soundtrack audio editing

I was only using a section of the audio that I had access to (see previous post) and did repeat certain sections in my film opening. In order to do this without disrupting the flow of the music I faded some of the audio into one another (diagram below).

Audio

For my opening sequence I used parts of the audio bellow as I felt that it was fitting for the dark and suspenseful atmosphere.

Target Audience

I believe that my film would appeal to a British audience due to the fact that both the location and the cast are British and therefore may find the film is more easier to relate to in comparison to the more mainstream American blockbusters. I also believe this film would target a mature female audience because of it's potential psychological complexity and lack of sexual content.
