To begin with I uploaded the clips from our second day of filming on to our computer. Once these had been changed to mpeg files I continued to import them into Premier. I then looked through the editing that had already been done to see where the flashback clips needed to be put in. I matched different parts together for instance Mitchell sitting on a bench in current time and then a flashback of the couple on the bench to show that the places he is visiting have meaning to him.
I also slotted flashbacks in between clips of him singing to add more of a story line rather than having 20seconds of him just singing. I had to start by editing the clips from when the couple were happy and placing them in near the beginning of the video then as the song became more intense insert and edit the clips of them arguing. Once i had picked the clip i wanted to used i had to cut out the parts that weren't needed and make it short enough to fit in the current gaps of the video.
To edit the clips so they looked like flashback i first changed them to black and white to show they took place in the past. To do this I went to effects and searched for the black and white effect, then simply dragged this onto the clip I wanted it on.
I also used a dip to white whenever entering or exiting a flashback to emphasize that these clips are a memory. I also found this effect in the 'effects' tab. I again dragged it to the beginning or end of any clip i wanted it on. I then dragged the end of the effect to make it last longer or shorter. I will use these effects for all of the flashback to add continuity to our film.
I then began to edit flashbacks together, such as me and Mitchell looking at each other. I edited this shot of two different angles together as to show both of our facial expressions. SCREENSHOT.
On the next day of editing I will finish adding the rest of the clips from our second day of filming, mostly these clips will be the of our fictional argument.
