TRANSITIONS
I am glad to say my film opening is starting to come together, most of my clips synchronize as they keep the same context of its lighting and angles. I was able to place my shots and audio above the same line therefore the audio plays as a background for the shots being produced.
As for my overall editing, I'm still undecided on which transitions to use for each clip. I did, however, limit it down to two possibilities that are both modest and include a soothing response to each subsequent clip. 'dip to color dissolve' is a transition that blends in with the deepest shades of the shot and color matches them. Because my shots are dimmed in the dark, the black covers the majority of the frame, giving it a smooth appearance. When I use 'cross dissolve,' however, it mixes in with the main shot.
I've seen movie opening sequences with a more cross dissolve effect, so I'm aiming for that, even though a drop to color dissolve mixes the video making it look aesthetically pleasing. Here are examples of the two transitions being incorporated in within the shots.
