Editing session 9

In today's lesson, I mainly checked the Artifact effect on all of my shots to be sure that the verses opacity was turned down to 3 and that the choruses were a little brighter to match the up beat tempo to 4. I also again looked for any glitches or improvements I could make to make the video more effective and flow naturally. For the second to last chorus and last chorus I stabilised them a little so that the shot didn't look too unbalanced and shaky. It helps to keep most of the shots stabile as it gives a professional look and makes the footage more visually appealing to the audience watching. 
Next, I noticed during the scenes where she finds the necklace and picks it up, the transition was very quick and made the scene abrupt when watching it. To improve it, I placed the close up singing of the third verse after the mid shot of her crouching down to pick it up. Then, I cut it to her holding the heart which made it flow much better and didn't make the scene abrupt. I also cut back to her singing and then cut to her walking with the necklace. This made it look a lot better from the previous placements of the footage and helped forward the symbol of the heart for the audience to watch.
I would like to believe that I am officially done now after having a look through my video and as of now cannot see that improvements need to be made. Next lesson possibly begin my ancillary tasks. Thankfully, I have the photo's taken from a while back and my audience survey to help me with the kind of look I can create. But, if I cannot do this next lesson due to improving my video I will hopefully start the ancillary tasks during next week.
