We were given the task to watch the clips and analyse them. We have watched the opening clips from the different type of thrillers.
As my view the most successful clip was the thriller named 'Collateral'. The most successful editing was when the briefcases got changed. The exchange of briefcases was when the suspense was created because it gave us an question about what is inside the briefcase? Why did they exhange it?.
To conclude this clip, it was fabulous and it gave me an excellent idea on how to do create suspense towards the audience. I will take this account and may use it in my thriller shooting.

The Editing Begins
Now that the filming side of the practice was now complete it was now time for the group and i to edit the peice to create our final short film. After a long and interesting lesson with Mick on exactly how to edit we had a short practice of editing on a peice of film where the class had the opportunity to edit down a peice of film and create various scenes using the clips available. This was very supportive as it enabled us to have a larger amount of experience in relation to edting and allowed me to gain ideas on how the shots that we had filmed could work together. later on in the lesson when the editing practice was complete the group and I focused on our short film and started editing the shots to create our final peice, fortunately this didnt come to be very difficult as i had focused on the lesson with Mick and it was therfore easy for me to understand exactly what was need to be done and begin.

Carrying on the Editing(Friday 12th December)
In todays task we were told to carry on the editing which was incomplete from the previous lesson. Dan wasn't in today so Tony took over instead of him. After the advices from Tony about the course we started carrying on the editing.
We putted all our shots in order then checked it if it was okay. We had couple of mistake like when we put the shots together it seems like its just fading to an another shot. So we cutted the little piece of it then we tried to put in the correct order in order to make a successful short film.
After doing all the editing, when we thought it was finished then we founded error on one of the shots. The shot was very long and seem to be boring so we shortened the shot and made it more interesting. After doing all the editing and we thought it was all done, there was one last thing left and that was to find the correct music for this short film. After looking for the right music then we founded a music which really suited to scene and we replaced the music in the scene.
Overall today was really challenging because it was really hard to find a suitable music for the scene but at the end I handled it. The new thing I learnt today was how to put music inside the scene. After watching the scene again with the music on this time, we have uploaded it to the blog.

The Editing(Tuesday 8th December)
After making a thriller with the poker cards in Dan's lesson, our task was to edit on the shots we took in the previous lesson. Before doing editing for our shots, we firstly learned how to do editing with Mickey then done a little task to see if we were doing okay. The task we dones was a short film and all the shots were mixed up so we neede to put them in the right place and put the right music.
We started doing editing on our shots, we had couple of diffuculties at the beginning on how to do the editing. All the shots were mixed up and we needed to put them together so the short film will make sense. When we started doing the editing we couldn't do it probably, then we got a hand from Micky.
Shaneen and Lauren was in for this lesson, so we started working together with them because them two were the ones in our group.
In this lesson I have learnt about the editing. The group and I couldn't complete the task for today because we still had time and we are going to carry on the Dan's lesson.
