Day 1: Firstly I imported my clips into final cut pro. I started to sequence my clips so they were in the right order. After looking back on the clips I noticed the lighting wasn’t acceptable. This gave me the idea to implement a night vision affect onto some clips. This fixes the problem of lighting and also gives a spooky feel to the trailer. To do this I changed the; red, blue and green balance.

Day 2: After colour correcting my clips and cut some clips to change the tone of the video. I got rid of some un-needed footage. I also used garage band to find the right sound effects for some clips. For example I added a rumbling effect to a scene. This creates a dangerous vibe to the trailer. I spent a long time finding the right sound effect for my trailer because sound is more crucial in horror trailers than it is in other movie trailers. In addition I added some visual effects, one effect appeared to be a camera malfunction. This was consistent throughout the trailer. I tried to give the impression that every time the camera malfunctioned the paranormal entity was near.

The final day of editing was using motion to create inter-titles. The use of inter-titles is to display information and split up the trailer so it maintains the pace you want. I also proof watched my trailer. After re-watching my trailer I decided to re-arrange some clips to give the audience a better understanding of the narrative. I also cut a few clips so the trailer moved quicker.
