A Blonde in Love - Self Edit Recreation
For this remake we captured footage to use over a few days and a couple of shoots in a group. After sharing the footage we all started our own edit in Premier Pro. As in other projects in Premier Pro, in order to keep everything easy to locate and import I created the file and brought together all the source materials into the same folder. I created it in the format suited to the footage we had taken and then overlayed the original scene, on a higher video track, and re-sized it and moved the position so it would serve as a guide. With some of the shots we hadn't recorded enough for the take, so there were a few things that I tried to extend the clip to be long enough like reversing the shot and using the cutting tool to copy frames from still parts and repeating them. After laying the footage into the desired order I went into the effects window to find and apply a gray scale effect to change my material into black and white. The reasons behind doing this was that it looks more like the original source also to be more consistent in feel as the light changes appear less noticeable. The next task was to create the subtitles that would appear through the project, which was done by adding new titles at every instance. It was long fiddly work and noting where the subtitles should be became more guess work; as the longer the subtitle the more different the object as a whole was, effecting its position needed. Exported out after a couple of watches through and one from a friend, I had finished the scene.
