Project: Post production/editing part 1

 I am now beginning the editing process for my film. but note that in one of my previous posts that my backdrop did not come in time, so I am going to have to reshoot some scenes if its necessary, since the black paper replacement backdrop I used is a bit reflective in the light.

Hopefully this won't be a major setback for my film.


I am using Adobe Express for my film, but some scenes like the opening production title I might need to do it on a separate platform since I am not sure how to do the transitions and animations I want. 

My planning is to simply just lay out all the resources I have and follow my storyboards, and the empty scenes in between will be the scenes I would like to reshoot. I just want to get the main frame of my project in so I can have a good grasp on what I am working with. 

The biggest obstacle I am coming across is the limited range of movement and animations that Express provides. There are specific camera movements and transitions that I want but Express doesn't have. I am not sure if I have to input specific file or code to "my stuff" category, but I am 55% sure I am going to have to create the transitions and movements in another film program. 


For the title card of my film, I am going to go with Baskervald ADF Std. I thought about using other futuristic looking fonts like IMBF Nanomaton or Anders. But I felt like those fonts were kinda pushing it, too upfront that my film is sci-fi. So I went with a simpler font. I was mainly inspired by the movie Emma (2020)


I really like the title card for Emma, showing the main character in the middle as the title surrounds her from both sides.

I plan on doing a similar title with my film except it is going to be a full rocket ship in the great distance in a extreme wide shot rather than a person. 




As for the images of the planet, I simply used free stock images from online.
