Adding a Trail:
There was one shot we really liked which was a low angle shot, which we had to lie on the floor to film. This one shot we really liked as not only did it feature our character but also the busy London background all around it. We got Megan to run away from the camera, as this shot followed on from the one which Megan looks behind her shoulder in fear at something coming up behind her. As she is running quite fast, we wanted the shot to last longer so that the audience can take it the surroundings of London but also see that Megan is running away from something. The shot was really quick so we firstly has to slow it down by 25% so it was a bit longer. We then went onto the the edits section of on Final Cut Pro and played around with a few features which could make this running shot look a bit more interesting. One effect we both really liked and thought looked interesting was the effect called 'Trails'. This effect makes the movement of the shot slow down and almost shadow the movements which are made in the shot, in this case it was Megan running. So each time Megan moved slightly there was almost a shadow of her previous movement behind her. We felt like this effect emphasised this running shot more and make it more interesting.
