Based on the research our group has conducted on the split-screen effect this is the result of what we had produced when using Premiere Pro CS5. We decided to make transitions to the split screen as well to help the montage flow better from shot to shot. The split-screen mainly made up from image-matts, offsets and presents looked very effective when rendered and helped tell the audience a big chunk of our story through short snappy cuts and split-screen sequences.

Editing: Software
To edit our film the software we have decided to use this year is Adobe Premiere Pro CS5. Our group felt as if that this piece of software offered more in effects and provided a more precise level of cuts than the previous piece of software we used last year which was iMovie. CS5 has further enhancements such as color corrections and other effects which will give our production a much more movie feel, whereas this wouldn't be the case on other editing pieces of software.

Problems Encountered During the Production
On shooting the first scene we immediately encountered a problem, location which affected how we planned to shoot scenes. The location for our first scene which happened to be a recurring location in our production was Victoria Station which we later came to realize that we were not able to film there due to the public and other suspicions, also that we needed to pay and also have a license to film in the station.
Mid way through filming we were stopped by security guards, as we felt this was a particularly good setting for our production we were determined to finish filming in the station. We continued filming again once they had gone and upon their return we decided to try and negotiate with the security guards which paid off with us convincing them to allow us to film for 5 more minutes which we proceeded in filming for another 30 minutes, ensuring we gathered enough coverage in that time.
Another disruption that caused some problems for us was battery life on the camera, as the camera would be in use by our media class it would tend to be either be near to an empty battery or the battery completely drained and filming would be cut short. To get past this we took the simple steps of having another battery pre-charged and/or having the current battery charged to some extent which has made for longer filming time and less hassle
