Editing Video Practical

 





SCRIPT.

INSIDE SCHOOL BUILDING

Sandeep opens the door slowly and confidently walks into the room.

SANDEEP

There you are. 


Princess turns around revealing herself.


PRINCESS

So you found me.


SANDEEP

Remember last time? It’s game over now!


Princess looks at Sandeep in confusion.

Sandeep bangs the table.

SANDEEP

Where is the body?

Princess teasingly waves her bottle.

PRINCESS

What body?


SANDEEP

You think this is funny? Where is the body?


PRINCESS

(mockingly) Oh my, scary!


SANDEEP

Next time it will be scary!


Princess grabs the bottle frantically and hits Sandeep

They both start running.









This practical task was conducted by: Gurleen, Sandeep, Princess, and Rukiya.

Director/ cinematography: Gurleen

Actors: Sandeep and Princess 

Written planning: Rukiya

For my editing, I have effectively included diegetic and non-diegetic sounds that complement the scene, such as sound effects like a door opening, glass shattering, date typing, and background music in some parts of the scene. Additionally, I have attempted to add transitions for flashbacks to differentiate the past from the present. I have also included typography for the dates and timing in a “typewriter” font.

Lighting : The overall ambiance is dark, but I utilized my phone flashlight to create a harsh light on one side of his face and to create a contrast between light and dark. Actors’ Expressions : I ensured he appeared as sorrowful and vulnerable as possible, just like in the original.

SANDEEP: I just want to apologize to everyone ... Heavy breathing, on ...
