Fourth Edit - Video Adjustments

A lot of changes have been made for the fourth edit. In the previous edit I had adjusted the length of all the clips until I was happy with the pacing and speed of the clips but in this edit I manually adjusted each clips brightness, contrast and colour balance to try to improve image quality and create some consistency between scenes. During the filming lighting was a big problem because of the awkward positioning of the camera and my model.

Most of the scenes were too dark, so I have tried to make them seem much more bright in line with the bathroom shots, as those are much brighter but obviously not as bright because the bedroom is supposed to be a bit darker. Some clips took more tweaking than others but I believe I have improved the quality of the videos considerably.

I have also added fades to the start and end of the sequence. The opening fade is 1 second, as 12 frames felt too short plus I can have the beeping start during the fade so it works out well. The final clip is 1 second long, and fade is 12 frames to give it a quick ending, as the first 14 frames are the door closing and the final 10 are the fade. I didn't want the fade to start before the door had fully closed so it is 10 frames instead of 12 to make it feel better.
