In today's lesson I started using FinalCutPro to edit my film. At first I found the program a little difficult to use, but I am starting to get used to it now and am making some changes to make the film a little scarier. I gave a red tinge to the pool murder scene and the wildlife park murder scene, which in my opinion, definitely made it scarier and more suspenseful because of the association of red with bloodshed. I also found a picture of a target and layered this over the girl victim at the end (as suggested by Ms Makin) in order to make it clear that she will be the next victim. In the last few minutes of the lesson, I played with the colours for the desk scenes where the murderer is planning her next murder. Based on my experiments, when we reshoot these scenes I will probably give them a cool, isolated feel by making the colour of the scene a bit blue. At the end of the lesson, when I went to eject my portable hard drive, it wouldn't do so safely as FinalCutPro wouldn't quit and the computer wouldn't shut down, so I had to just pull it out. Hopefully this won't affect the file or do too much damage!
