Once we were happy with all of the footage we had filmed during our shoot day, we as a group were ready to start editing the footage using an application on the Mac's called Final Cut Pro.
As soon as we started to edit, we noticed a problem that would take some time and perseverance to fix. During the filming, we had decided not to record any sound due to the fact we had no dialogue, and we were going to be placing a soundtrack on top of the footage anyway, so we thought we didn't need it. However, once we started to piece the sequence together with the music on top, we realised it sounded slightly odd, so we would need 'white noise' all the way through the film, just so it sounded real, because without the white noise it sounded very fake. We had to search through all of the sound from the footage in order to find some suitable 'white noise', so that the footage would sound more life like, as there is always noise in films.
Once we had found some 'white noise' in some of our footage, we simply copied and pasted it all along our timeline so that there was 'white noise' throughout the entire sequence. Once we had inserted this sound into our opening, it immediately sounded a lot more realistic, as the film itself was no longer completely silent.
