Editing process 1

 Editing process 1 

Hello blog! So, after filming, it is time to do the editing part, which I am so excited about. During this week, my group and I had to make a lot of decisions about our project, which was complicated since we had to record many of the scenes again, as I have mentioned in previous blogs. Now, it is time to focus on editing and get all of our ideas together.

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that for the audio, we were interested in implementing songs that reflected the atmosphere of sadness and lack of emotions that Maddie experiments with. Still, we wanted to make the audio more appropriate and made specifically for our project. 

As a quick random fact, one of my favorite hobbies is writing and composing music in my free time along with my favorite instruments which are piano and guitar and I love how music can really embody one's feelings, therefore, I decided to propose the idea to my group that I could write and compose the film's music. 

For a couple of days, I dedicated some time to recording different melodies that could represent the tone of the film which is sad and obscure. After I recorded some samples, I decided to use iMovie to edit them together. Here are some pictures and a portion of how one part turned out. 

So far, I would say that making the background music has been my favorite part of the project. I feel like this is the way that I can truly express and discover in a creative way what can be done for this project, as well as experiment with my music. Can't wait to see the final product!
