Editing within 'Playground'

The editing of 'Playground' has been carried out to comply to the conforms of the genre, and covey an eerie atmosphere during the sequence. We did this through a number of aspects:
  1. Firstly, we set the pace of the shots to reflect the on-screen footage, for example, during the playground scene, we had slow transition shots. However, when the young girl was abducted, we began to reduce the shot duration, to increase the pace of the scene, and build tension.
  2. Next, we added black and white with dark edges to the shots to give a distorted dream compared to the normal everyday life of what would normally be going on this is confusing and different.
  3. Finally, we corrected the shots and sections, putting them in order, so that it made continual sense and didn't confuse the viewer.
