Final Touches

 I DID IT!! My film opening is finalized! I am going to talk about all the editing I worked on from the last update about editing until now.

I edited the sound of all the clips so the conversation would sound more natural and not like separate clips, I put a filter over the entire thing so the coloring would look better and cohesive. I also added background sounds to make everything more realistic like traffic sounds, birds chirping, kids talking in the background for the school scenes, and a school bell, I found these on YouTube and they are all royalty-free. I love seeing all the progress I have made from day 1 and how far the project has come,  I just love seeing everything come together. 

I added all the credits and title graphic but I struggled with choosing which color to put them in because every color felt out of place, but I finally settled on purple with a thin black outline. I thought a bright color fit the teenage aspect of my film, and it also stood out enough not to blend with the background. I ended up choosing the font True Story, which was my second option when I was choosing between fonts because it did not blend with the background and it fits the juvenile aspect of the film.

I am so happy with the result and I cannot believe this journey is coming to an end. After working on this for almost 2 months, posting blogs almost became part of my routine, I am going to miss this. I am also proud of what I created, even if it is not the best or perfect in any way, I worked so hard on it and dedicated so much time and effort into it. 

I cannot believe this is my second to last post, but see you tomorrow for the final post!
