This is the first edit of the 'smoke reversal' scene. I wanted this to represent Liam's memory regressing to a time in the past as an introduction to the first flashback sequence. I purposefully placed this edit at this specific point to coincide with the lyrics 'something is changing, changing changing'.
What did I do?
Whilst filming Liam performing I got him to slowly let cigarette smoke flow from his mouth whilst I filmed it as a close-up shot. When we were out filming the drinking montage I got him to repeat this whilst I filmed it as a close-up shot. I then edited the first shot so that it was in reverse and placed it before the second shot having a slightly overlapping fade between the two.
What would I change?
Although I am extremely happy with the overall outcome of this edit, I am considering re-filming the second close-up as I wanted both shots to be identical in their framing and I also believe that it will be mre effective overall.
