Unforgettable - Complete!

I have completed the finishing touches to my work and have uploaded the my final video here for my teacher to mark. I added some final touches including a heartbeat sound on the amp layer at the end to further utilise the amp, and changed where some sound in the video are heard so that I utilised all the different speakers. I've shown the video to a few of my friends and they all agree that my video is very powerful in evoking grief or sadness.

Here is a summary of what I have accomplished with my finished project:

• The scenes change on the beat, or at a vocal cue, which adds to the atmosphere and flow.
• The major events (eg, car crashes) that occur are all places at slightly unexpected or syncopated parts of the music, to further shock the audience.
• The amp is used twice, once to emphasise a time slowing down sound effect, and again to create a haunting heartbeat sound near the end.
• The sound effects come from all different directions, and sound travel from one place to another like they do on screen, which makes the video more real and adds to the atmosphere.
• I used audio manipulation to make the King Nat Cole (the singer of Unforgettable) hold one of the syllables ('ble' in 'unforgettable') in the video longer, so that it would fit in with the rest of the video.
• I used video manipulation to zoom in and stretch the footage so that there were no black bars down the sides of the footage.

I believe I was very successful in evoking an emotion, what do you think? Watch my video here:
