After filming out opening scene we had to put our film together. We had to finalize the footage on the camera, then connect the a USB to the computer, then change the format to put it on a disk (CD). Afterwards we used the adobe premier elements 10, to edit our footage that we had filmed. When we opened the software, we had to change the setting so we had to change to the format to Pal - HDV - 720p and then made a new folder for a our film and gave it a title of our film, "The lost locket". When we opened the software we uploaded the footage and we found out that the footage that was filmed in two clips or parts, so we had to separate all the footage and the behind the scene main them separate, so that they would be easier to put all the relevant section together to make our opening. So in order to do this we used the same footage a few times to get each shot out, and repeated that process again to get all the footage. Afterwards we added the dip to black transition on our opening, we added them at the beginning of the opening and at the opening and one at the end. This would allow to show a start of the film and where the opening end, with out showing a harsh cut.
What went well was that we were able to upload the footage and start to crop the footage, so it was relevant to our opening. We also trailed some of the transitions as well to see which one which one would fit well with our opening so we trailed dip into white, black. so we decided to use the dip into black as it looks better and fades well as it introduces the opening and closes the scene.
To improve we could crop more of the footage so that it fits the 2 minutes that we have been given. Also add the front title and the production title in, and add the transitions which will help fade the into the opening. So also adding these titles would fit to convention of how a opening should start.
