We gathered all the material and then started the painstaking process of editing, which started with arranging the clips in order of chronological order. In order to preserve narrative coherence, we meticulously examined each scene to make sure it flowed naturally into the next. First, we assembled the video footage from the afterschool acting situations, paying close attention to the characters' interactions and feelings. The light jog shots were then incorporated, with the timing changed to match the scene's excitement and dynamic transitions added for flow. We then added the footage of the enigmatic figure, arranging the scenes purposefully to heighten the tension and interest throughout the whole movie. While preserving visual coherence with the other scenes, the automobile shots were expertly incorporated to highlight the action's speed and intensity. We were meticulous about color grading, modifying hues and tones to bring out the best in every scene's mood and ambiance as we edited. To create a feeling of warmth and familiarity, we used warm colors for the sequences set after school. On the other hand, to capture the excitement of the sport, the light jog sequences were color graded with vivid, energizing tones. In order to highlight the mysterious character's quality, the images of the man were color graded with colder, desaturated tones. In order to increase suspense and anxiety in the automobile shots, we used a combination of dramatic lighting effects and dark, somber tones. To create visual appeal and grab the audience's attention, we experimented with a variety of visual effects and transitions.The film's entire mood was greatly enhanced by the sound design, which featured well chosen music and sound effects to go along with the pictures. Every clip was carefully examined to make sure it advanced the story and kept viewers interested. Our combined contribution helped to improve the final product, and our collaborative talks were crucial in helping to refine the editing choices. We worked on the edit iteratively, adjusting the timing, tempo, and composition to get the right emotional impact. Throughout the movie, title cards and graphics were judiciously positioned to establish context and bolster important narrative points. We carried out final quality checks following multiple iterations of changes to make sure the edit fulfilled our high standards. The visual effects and color grading were expertly calibrated to elevate the overall cinematic experience and draw viewers into the narrative. Ultimately, we were thrilled to have produced a film that exceeded our initial expectations in terms of both visual appeal and emotional resonance. This is a credit to our teamwork and commitment to the art of filmmaking.
