What i changed in my One Shot Film.

My One shot film was created as two different files. I had an .avi file which contained the video but also the background sound and many different .wav files which contained the voice overs and other sounds to edit into the film.

The .avi file had two runs of the film rolled into one video, firstly i had to cut out the run that i didn't want. i decided to use the second run, therefore i cut out the first one. This made the total running time of the film about 1 minute 20 seconds.

My next task was then to add my sounds into premiere. Before i added the files into my video however, i needed to delete the video sound track so that the sound files could be heard clearly and wouldn't clash. The sound files themselves needed cutting down in premiere because the sounds recorded had some talking before and after the actual line needed. The sound files themselves where the thoughts of the girl and not actually the dialogue between the two. Next i then needed to look through the video and pick out where the sounds fit in to sync with the visual speech between the two characters, this was quite a long process as i had to keep replaying the video my make sure it was in the correct place.

After i had the video and sound in sync and running smoothly i then had to write and insert subtitles to show what conversation was actually happening. I had to again scan through the video and find exactly where each line was being said. I found it quite difficult to fit both the subtitles and sounds around the video, however i managed to fit them all together and the video played through quite nicely.

My final task before exporting the film was to add a title page and also an end page. This was very simple to do and introduced the film to the viewer and justv said The End when the film had finished. I Then exported my film in Microsoft AVI format with about 85% quality, this ensured that the video still looked and played well. The total file size was 220MB which would easily upload onto youtube as their limit is 1GB.
