Transitions

To make the transitions between our clips look less harsh Della and I chose to use the transitional tools on Final Cut to link clips together. We used 'Cross Fade' a lot because we felt it made the getting ready scenes more smooth, creating an atmosphere of relaxation.

However, to contrast the smooth editing predominantly used in the film, for the running scene at 1.46 in the second edit we chopped pieces out of the original clip to make it have a more stacato and jumpy beat. This dramatizes the clip and also fits well with the music.
