Completed First Edit

Myself and Harrison have just finished our first edit for our film opening. We uploaded the police voice over that Harrison recorded to it and cut it down by a few seconds to ensure it fitted perfectly. We decided that making the voice carry on for a few seconds into the first shot showing the actress would be more effective as I have seen it done in films such as the Bourne films and Shooter. This engages the audience and briefly sets the scene. We then made sure the voice over went over the first countdown timer footage to create tension and link the two parts together better. While the voice over is still going on, the music starts to play and when the talking stops, the music takes the dominant position in the shot.
