I have been doing a lot of editing again because this is my main job in this production. It was much easier for me to montage the shots. I had a better view of how things should look like because I have been doing a lot of practice. By having a variety of different shots I had the opportunity to choose the best ones and create a great continuity throughout the whole piece.
To create a good mise-en-scene in this part we needed darker shots to give the feeling that it is in the morning just until the sun comes up. Unfortunately, we waited a bit too long in the morning and the shots were too bright. So, when editing afterwards we experimented with colours, brightness and contrast. We thought that making the shots a bit more blue which makes the weather looks bad and adds to the atmosphere we are aiming for. Here is an example:
It is not very clear in this picture but I hope you can see the difference in both.
Also, before even filming we had the idea of adding blurry point of view shots which could symbolise a hallucination which we know from previous research that is a sign of taking ecstasy. I think we achieved that very well by doing this:
I made the shot blurry and Anna really liked how good the continuity is when adding this shot but she had an idea of how to make it even better. She changed the colours, making them brighter and more colourful and I think her improvements really made it better.
