Embers 2nd edit

Embers - 2nd Edit 

Having done my first edit and getting the feedback that I did, I felt confident in knowing where to focus my attention and full concentration. 
So having taken on board the positive criticism I had been given on my first edit, I focused on changing the music and setting a certain tone throughout the beginning and closing moments of my sequence. 

To be truthful I found it quite hard to find a certain piece of music that ran well with both scenes and after hours of trawling through the Youtube audio clips, I ended up frustratingly picking ones out of pure desperation and madness. Clearly this resulted in the 2nd edit still not really have a well working soundtrack. So I am still on the look for one! 

However there is some good salvageable feedback that i received, being told that i'm almost there with it, and to just look at the finer details now made me feel fairly content with the level of work I had produced. E.g to look into the colouring of certain shots, and the diegetic sound of the sequence, adding authenticity to the sequence with natural sounding clips, matching with the scene to give it a real sense of genuineness. 

Overall I'm pleased with the second edit, knowing that there isn't too far to go now, but that there is obviously work still needed to give it a feel real sense of authenticity and depth of detail.
