The post-production stage of your project is where all the material (video, photos, music, sound effects etc) which you’ve collected is loaded onto a computer hard-drive and edited using video editing software. There are a wide variety of visual effects, transitions, titles and font styles to choose from. Here are some ideas for post-production:

• Using archival or library footage/photos
• Editing techniques such as cuts, cross-fades, montage, slow motion, time-lapse, film-in-reverse etc • Editing camera shots, photos, maps etc into an interview sequence to illustrate visually the dialogue • Subtitles such as names, places, language translation, film-maker comments/questions etc
• Graphics such as diagrams, symbols, speech bubbles, highlighter or fudge effects
• Inter-titles ie chapters or statements between sections of the film
• Photo-montage ie a sequence of still images
• Zooming or panning across still photos
• Voice-over commentary provided by one or more people to help in story-telling, link sequences or add information to help the narrative
• Music or atmospheric sound or sound effects to contrast or complement a film sequence You can avoid copyright issues by making your own music or using copyright-free music.
