Final Edits

 In an earlier post, I brought up wanting to attempt double exposure and dissolve transitions to show our chess moves and setting up the board. In order to do this, I had to find out how to overlay videos on top of each other in Premiere Rush and change the opacity. I also had to make sure the clips fade into each other in an aesthetically pleasing way that still matched with the pacing of the film. Below is the video I based my edits off of and my final product of trying to reproduce that same editing style.

While the clip from Spider-Man overlays a POV shot of Peter drawing and the other shot of his face, it still creates this effect of long lapses of time passing within the visual seconds. I needed this overlap because our film was reaching over the minute mark and I needed to find a way to condense some of our clips to fit in the time. I also had to speed up some of the clips used to decrease elapsed time since some scenes were filmed a bit slow paced.

In my double exposure edit, I also made the opacity of the Pawn's scene 50% and the Mafia Boss' scene 75%. I wanted the Mafia Boss to be more prominent when exposed on top of the chess board to show visual dominance over the game.
