Editing: Practice using special effects

The type of film opening we have decided to use is a styalized because of the special effects it uses that makes the film more interesting and thrilling.  Special effects are extremely important for an stylized opening because of the lack of narrative and acting which it has to compensate so we can keep the audience entertained. Here are some of the effects we tested:



This special effect is called solarised which makes the scene look creepy and paranormal. This helps to keep the audience interested and entertained.

This effect is called posterised which is similar to solarised because it changes  the colour scheme. This effect makes the scene look like animation which could help to keep the audience entertained and is relevant to the scene.

This effect is called indent which creates an effect that makes the images stand out. This effect is useful when you have a scene where the image or a picture is a key prop and is one of the main focus point.

This special effect is called crystallization which makes the scene blurry like if it was filmed through a window. This effect is mostly used to make the scene more interesting as it is unusual.

The special effects was added on Final cut pro.
