Crafting suspense

 Hi!

As I stated in my previous blog post, we want to grip the audience instantly. We need to establish tension, mystery, and get the viewers intrigued.

Key Editing Techniques:

  •   Quick Cuts & Jump Cuts: We will include multiple of these cuts to create a sense of
    urgency.
  •   Slow Motion: We will include slow motion takes to highlight moments of danger or realization.
  •   Match Cuts: Using match cuts allow transition between scenes smoothly to help keep the flow engaging.
  •   Jarring Sound Edits: We would include sudden silences or very sharp audio cues that could build suspense.


After deciding what exact cuts and edits we would use to create the

suspense, we then implemented it into our opening. Next we plan on adding color and make our opening more vibrant.
