Within this editing session, we managed to get the majority of the editing done as we now had access to the rest of the footage, we began by filling the gaps we spaced out with the appropriate videos and cropping out unnecessary footage for those that were too long or irrelevant. This formed the chase scene, also known as the flash forward, this created entertainment, drama, enigma and hype within the first opening scene as the height of action has already been shown. Thus making the audience more intrigued to piece the story together.
We ensured that with the chasing scene that it was obvious who was chasing who and when as previously we did Laurence, Laurence, Jess pattern however it became apparent that this was confusing and hard to follow, and so we decided to show who was running and in what direction. We had to flip one of the videos of Laurence as he appeared to be running in the opposite direction as Jess, this not making sense and causing confusion.
Again, were sound is concerned, we decided to import some helicopter sounds and police sirens, to show the criminal side to Jess, and how much pressure and how dependent everyone is on Laurence to capture this, this heightening the drama element, in advance to this we also ensured that one of the darker scenes had blurred blue lights, to reflect police and the idea of capturing which again heightened the intensity as it made it appear like they were surrounded especially with the sound effects imported.
After re-watching the clips I came up with the idea that we make the comparison between the two characters by showing there morning routine straight after one and other, providing the immediate reaction to the news when they both view it. Through experimentation we agreed that this would be a better process as it creates more intrigue as the characters follow different or similar actions.
