On returning from work experience, I wanted to re-film the section of the film that was missing. Unfortunately all the materials and devices I used have been thrown out, so I have no other option but to cover up the hole in the editing. This is a great shame because that section, where a jar spirals downwards and knocks a domino trail of video cassettes, added a unique dynamic and pace change to the sequence. I started editing by transferring all the footage, along with the rough sequence I'd put together, onto another computer so another student could edit her footage. My priority then was to try and seamlessly stitch the two sequences where the other one was missing. To do this I found a Youtube tutorial about keyframes, which I used to zoom in and pan across the piece of footage digitally. This crops the right hand side of the film out so it looks like the string has directly pulled the jar, when in reality there was another sequence in between. I then set about creating an ident to use at the end of mine, and the others', films, which I did using the text features on Final Cut. I also made the end of the film blur out so the text stood out. Here is the finished film:
