This document summarizes the post-production work done on a film project in Premiere and After Effects, including: applying black and white and rain effects in Premiere; masking the rain around an actor in After Effects; adding Foley sounds of a bin being hit with distortion and lowered pitch; overlaying an old film grain loop to make the film look like an old film noir; and animating a glitching, flashing title sequence in an eerie font in After Effects to set an unsettling tone.

Here is a screenshot of the Premiere project of our nearly fully edited film.
We made the video black & white with the effect preset in Premiere. We did this, to suit our Mise-enscene.
In After effects, we added in rain for pathetic fallacy. This was achieved with the ‘CC Rain’ effect, which can be found in the ‘Effects’ menu, under ‘Simulation’. Some colour correction was also added to the sky, to make it look more authentic.
In this over the shoulder shot, I had to mask the rain around our actor (Adam), as he was look through a winnow. The image shows the mask we crated around Adam, and underneath, the key frames are shown, where we had to alter the mask shape.
We used Foley sounds to create artificial noises, like a ‘Low Boom’ sound. We recorded the sound of a bin being hit, and added distortion, reverb, and lowered the pitch. This sound can be heard at the start and end of our final thriller.
On After effects, we wanted an old film grain over the film to make it look like an old film noir. So I downloaded a loop of a black old film grain, and put it over the clip. Then, I set the blending mode to ‘Overlay’ to remove the white and make the original thriller show through. The effect is visible in the final thriller.
Our title sequence were probably the most time consuming of the editing process. On After Effects, we chose an eerie font to suit our style, and I animated the text glitch in and out, with occasional flashes. This was done to show a deranged atmosphere. Again I added an old film grain overlay to match the original thriller.
