Putting It All Together: Editing, Day 3!

On the next day of editing, we started to add filters to our footage, along with attempting to finish getting it down to one minute. Rook’s realization scene along with Kammy’s interrogation can be scene below. 

I had fun applying the filters to the film, it was a simple, yet entertaining task. We decided to leave our beginning scene in all colors, which not only worked as a transition, but also to ‘establish’ the inspiration for the rest of the film.

All our characters are the human embodiments of chess pieces. For example, Sean, the King, was the King, piece. Investigator Rook was the Rook, and Kammy, our suspect, was a pawn.

The black and white is also inspired by old black and white silent films. We aspired to achieve the feel of black and white movies, and I think we did a good job at doing just this.
