Offline edit

When editing the final footage of a film together it is common for studios to create an offline edit which is cut of the film which has no effects added to it at all no music, no visual effects and no liner or non- liner editing. This means that the editor can get a good sense of the tone they are trying to convey before beginning work. We decided that it would be in our teams interest to create an offline edit of the white room so that we could more easily decide on the final shots which we wanted to use and in what order. Specifically this applied to sequences such as the opening crosscutting scene and the final kidnapping scene. It is important to note that this edit was created before the final cut was prepared which means that some of the shots may not be the same versions as the ones used in the final product and it will be longer than the final film as that shots are not cut down for the purposes of editing. As well as this they be out of order of have audio issues which will be corrected in the future.
