Title Sequence Coursework - Editing(1)

Today, I was editing my footage, on Final Cut Pro, for my title sequence. I was able to successfully edit the footage in the order the title sequence needs to be in, but I did struggle with adding the effects on to the shots. I wanted to have the shots looking cold and mysterious, like David Fincher, but I could not get the right balance between the whites, the mid and the black to be able to get the cold, mysterious look. I had to ensure that the colour orange did not show on the shots as orange shows warmth, which is not the convention of the Thriller genre. After a while of trial and era, I finally got the collect amount of each to make the title sequence look cold and like the Thriller genre. Below are some screenshots of me editing the footage from filming.

Figure 1 - I am changing the colouring of the clips to match the genre of the film 























Figure 2 & 3 - You can see the difference between the two shots, as one looks normal and warm with it's orange colouring, and the other looks icy and cold with the bluish effect.
