Why Are We Here?

In our latest short video assessment, we have been asked to edit a 25 second long conversation. This had to include over the shoulder shots, close ups, a medium shot, and a master shot in or to be successful. Pacing of the conversation had to be kept calm in order to enhance the intimacy of the subject; doing it too fast would have not fit at all while a very slow edit would have been uninteresting to watch.

For humorous effect, we added in some angelic and meaningful music when one of the characters begins to waffle on about life and why we as humans exist. To top it off, we included a record scratch sound effect to abruptly end the music as the other character reiterates his question to "Why are we here, in this room?".
