NOSTALGIA: Editing (2)

Today, we have edited the scene we have filmed in Nandos, where Harry takes out Melodie out for a dinner and he gives a gift (necklace) for their 1st anniversary. These 3 shots are the main part of this small scene. It explains why they are at a restaurant, and by her face expression i the second shot you can tell that she is happy to see her gift. We can tell this package is for her as you can tell in their body gesture. Also the kiss she gives him afterwards shows she is saying thank you. At the moment we have only been able to make some simple editing by cutting and fading. However we will add some effects on the shots to make this look like a flash back scene. Also we haven't added any sounds, but we are both

thinking to add the sounds after editing the video with cuttings and adding on the effects.

To get some inspirations of editing for the flash back scenes, I have searched up some scene from a Disney Channel Programme called "That's So Raven" on YouTube. As I know this programme contains loads of these flashback scenes. 

I've went through some of the flash back scenes from YouTube, however I've noticed that she is reading the future and not what has happened in the past, so even if we used the same method of editing it would not make a lot of sense. But I really like the idea of having a very high contrast on the footage as this made it look "unreal" and like a flash back. 

I may do some more research on how to make footage look like a flashback so the audience will be able to understand the scene.
