"Doors" Video analysis

To create this video, we used a variety of new and old techniques within Adobe Premier Pro. To begin, the introduction, of which consisted of standard white text contained within a black box by inserting a blank clip into the timeline. We didn't use many effects, though we did speed up, as well as flip several clips so as to retain continuity. Our editing was entirely continuity, featuring many different shot angles, such as the button pressing to break up the clip and avoid the dull waiting time, whereby we lowered one leg of the tripod to give a high angle shot, to show the camera following the actions with me and give more realism.

I have learned a lot of techniques for movement, as well as continuity, namely the foot-scene and the doors closing. Not only did we flip the walking scene to ensure everything was moving in the same direction, but we slowed it down to adjust it with the general speed of the movement and progression;the feet moved to fast for the shot beforehand. The doors closing infront of the camera also retained continuity and set the next shot up, whereby we were shown the floors changing for the knowledge that there was movement occuring, setting up the very similar opening of a set of slide doors, imporantly shot from behind to show no reveal of the origin of my path, giving the required 'doors' illusion. Trimming the shots was also important, as in some places I had to wait for a long time to change locations which was dull and unnecessary, so we used the trimming and razor tool to adjust the clip durations, as well as split them up for other clips to be inserted for continuity. This was present between the first shot from behind up until the waiting for the elevator, which was 3 clips inserted for interest and continuity.
