Dancing Animals Premier

For my first practice footage, I used clips from James Bond and of dancing animals. My sequence starts off with James Bond. I then chose to introduce the song and the dancing animals, because it creates the impression they are dancing to the beat of the music.
The first effect I used was a faded effect, when the video transition from James Bond to the dancing animals.
Moreover, a clip of a plane had been added, which was then reversed as an effect, so that it evokes more interest, but at the same time confusion, as we wonder why it is going backwards.
In addition to this, to further my experimentation with effects, the colour of the video was also altered. Instead of retaining its original colour, I opted for the black and white effect. This creates a much more dull, sombre atmosphere.
Another video effect was a ripple effect, which changed the entire video clip; it wasn't a change in transition. It is more interesting than only changing the transitions, because it shows an advance in effects and can implies excitement. Also, it contrasts with the original image of clouds, as they move at a much slower, sedate pace.
Finally, I ended the sequence with James Bond, so that there is a relation between beginning and end. Some of the clips were also slowed down - where Bond jumps out of the window. This emphasises drama and creates more attention on the action taking place.
