During the editing process, we had to decide what kinds of transitions and effects we were going to use which would fit within our chosen genre of romance/drama for our film.The main edit our production consists of includes fade in/fade out and a time passing sequence, this is to show the couple's relationship as it progresses along with Molly's disease as that continues to grow and take over her life, despite her efforts to stay positive and be happy with Alfie.
When filming this production, many of the scenes were shot outside and in busy areas, this as a result caused issues in editing our production, as the weather such as the sun moving behind clouds, the wind blowing and in some cases snow falling became an in-continuity piece that in places had to be edited to ensure our film was continuous. Similar to this the noisy areas were a problem to shoot as many of the dialogue spoken often wouldn't be heard on the camera for example busy roads could be heard in the background, the wind blowing caused disruptions and busy areas such as the cafe scene were loud and noisy, therefore we needed to edit out these interruptions to ensure we could hear what the characters were saying.
The time passing sequence in our production was also an issue we had to correct in order to show a passage of time continuously, in order to show the couples relationship moving forward, we had to film in a range of weather conditions that would display a passage of months, as a result filming these scenes became an issue as we had to spend a lot of time editing the different weather conditions together to correctly portray a significant amount of time passing from when the couple meet, have there first date and when they are in love.
We decided to edit our production in this way to express the realistic and romantic genre of the film, depsite editing difficulties.
