While lighting was the primary issue that was hindering the quality of my work and it needed to be fixed urgently, their are other tweaks and little things that I incorporated to make my project feel more meaningfully done. I went through the timeline again and again looking for any imperfections that were in my control to fix (like the lighting previously mentioned) and what I could add to make the project even better, quality at all costs. One thing that I played with allot during my time editing was the audio sector.
As I established a couple of weeks ago audio sets in a very unique place where it is very easy to implement, but difficult to do in a way that is considered memorable or impressive. Here, I will go through the things I did to make the audio more elaborate and detailed. Firstly I incorporated a new soundtrack to use in the first half of the project and one that I am using at the very end of the project (the links bellow takes you to were you can listen to them). These help add yet another element to keep the audience engaged while also adding a way to provide an anchor for changes in tone throughout the entire project.
Lastly, I used allot of saddle diegetic sounds throughout the entire piece, such as a car accelerating or a door creaking open. But, there were come diegetic sounds that were especially important for development of context or for retaining the viewers attention throughout the piece. Because of this I incorporated a simple way to make sure they stood out, I made these parts short, yet significantly louder than the other diegetic sounds. This allowed for depth in the audio of the piece while giving these specific sounds there own space to be present and noticed in the project. (Image bellow is an example)
