Thriller 2 Minute Opening



Preliminary Task

In our preliminary task the editing that was performed was very shady especially with the sound effects as they were not in time and did not fit the video very well, compared to our 2 minute thriller opening which have precison editing to the second and matched with the video.

The transitions in our preliminary tasks were all straight cuts, this is where it jumps from one frame to another with no transition effect. In comparison to our thriller video from most frames we included a transition such as cross fade or dissolves to go between them, this added effect to the thriller opening itself as it kept it from being dull and boring.
