Editing 'Arlington Road'

Editing clips and adding Foley sounds

The task given was to put randomly placed clips taken from a film called 'Arlington road' togethere in the right order and then after we were meant to go out ourselves and create our own sounds for the clip . We edited the clips on final cut pro , we found putting the clips togethere slightly challenging because there were no sound so we had to use the knowledge on how film openings start to finish the task. When we finally managed we went through the finished clip and wrote down things we might want to look out for like : a car door slamming , birds tweeting , traffic noise and footsteps . However after we finished finding the sounds needed we came back and realised that none of the sounds fit with the video , we decided to use a heart beat sound effect from soundtrack and we made it so the heart beat increased graduly to add an effect .

After this task i found that my understanding on editing and using final cut  and sound track pro increased and i felt more confortable with the editing process. What i will work on for the actual 2 minute thriller is practising on creating noise that can acutally be used to inhance our thriller .
