A rough cut of the first few scenes

Above is my first rough cut of the first few scenes. I have a lot more to add to this and the black frames you see throughout the video are place holders for other shots I have yet to film. I like a lot about this footage, the first few shots with the soundbridges and the way the girl turns around and some opening credits comes in at the same time as an SFX sounds, this is similar to the shot after where the detective enters the screen and more opening credits and another SFX. I also like the way the title comes in as it comes in at the same time a bus goes by. The shot after this I really like as well because you see a police car go past and it gives it a noir feel which a red tinge of the nightlife. There were however a few issues that I had to correct. For instance in one of the scenes the lighting is too light because the shot before it it looks much much darker. I have tried to fix this by deleting some of the scenes I don't necessarily need and adding effects to some scenes I do need to keep but I think the best thing to do is to reshoot these few scenes at a later date. There was also an issue with the light in the tunnel. In the few scenes in which you first see the alleyway the tunnel is almost pitch black and in the next scenes there's a light so you can see her face. I've tried to fix this by adding in the light turning on but I may reshoot these as well, or add a shot of the actual light in the tunnel turning on. I also like the final shot we see of the detective running up to the building as I like the diegetic noises in the background and the redness of the shot resembling the night time.
