Diary of Editing 25th February

When editing this time I payed more attention to the music. When the music fades out to the black I wanted to create an echo sound that gets louder at the end. I could make the sound haver re-verb as one of the effects on premier elements, but couldn't fade out the music whilst making it louder at the end because it would sound jumpy and choppy which is not the effect I wanted to achieve. I slowed down the same music after the blackout to show a difference in the girl and what her ambitions are. The music has a dreary tone to it and it emphasises the bass notes. The slow music seems like it should have been used at some points before the blackout. However I'm not sure if I like the music that I've chosen for my film, therefore I have experimented with different music tracks. I have chosen to see what the other  soundtracks sounded like by using the ones from my previous sound research and planning task. The second sound track matched the film a lot better, however it goes against my idea of having contrasting non diegetic music to give the film a satire tone. I also used the time frame tool to speed up the bus part, I sped it up from 100% up to something like 600% to be able to

condense it down to eight seconds. I've also started to look at different transitions that I could use, however a lot of them are way too dramatic and give off the wrong effect on the opening sequence as a whole. The type of transition that would look best is one that slightly blurs between scenes to represent how the girls life is a blur and she doesn't really feel like everything is going well.
