Wrapping it up!

With everything except sound done, the project is turning out very well. All we had to do today we record the newscast and create the folleys. One issue we had was the newscast voice over. My voice simply did not seem like a true newscasters. One of my friends, Zach Cohen, is an aspiring newscast reporter and had the perfect voice for the job. We sent him the report Ellie and I created and he voice memoed it right back to us! It worked out perfectly. Another thing we had to create were the folleys, we had to create one for the gloves and the tape. For the gloves we simply just used a shower cap made of the same material because we lost the gloves, but re-recorded it so the sound could be heard, Unfortunately the voiceover we made for the tape can't be heard over the voiceover and the music. Even with lowering the volume of the other clips! It is okay, because we both felt that the sound wasn't vital to the storyline. Another task at hand was Ellie's voice over. That part was probably the easiest of them all.

One last thing we needed was the music. Music is everything in this opening, it had to set the mood perfectly. To find this suspenseful music we simply used the ones available to us on iMovie. There were three to choose from, but we found that the first one fit the opening the best. One issue Ellie and I thought we would encounter never  happened. We were convinced that when putting in all of the extra sound that nothing would fit correctly and it would turn out horrible, but it was just the opposite. Everything fit almost perfectly and flowed well. We reviewed it several times after before showing my parents and they absolutely loved it! Although we are going to make sure our peers don't have anymore suggestions to add, I believe that this film opening is complete! I am so happy with the turnout and would off never thought it would of turned out this good. Ellie and I made one good team!
