During our opening sequence we wanted to show the audience that the home movie and the woman in the garage were related but obviously we only had two minutes so it couldn't be explained that the little girl with brown hair was the woman when she was younger. The camera we used was a new model so it didn't give the effect that many old cameras used to when it was slightly fuzzy and you can see small lines in the picture.
However on final cut pro we found an effect called 'Bad TV' which made our home movie of the children look a lot older and worn out as though the woman has watched this film over and over again. We also liked the effect on it because it showed a really nice contrast between the two time periods and as we were cutting back and forth between them, it proved very effective. This contrast also shows that it was a much happier time back then whereas it's dark and dirty now so the bright colours and old effect show this to the audience.
