Editing

I didn't do the editing; a fellow teammate, Jeremy, did it.

Though, I originally wanted to, as it is one of my hobbies and I've had experience doing it before. But finally, after a long discussion, I decided to give it up for him.

Below is the first finished edit Jeremy showed us. If compared to the final ad, some of the lighting in the scenes of this first edit is a bit less dark. One of those scenes being the intro. We later decided to opt for an even darker and creepier feel because we think it suits this whole urban exploration theme better.

Another noticeable change is the writing on the outro. The problem of it was that it didn't in any way inform the audience that this ad promotes Bali.

In between this first edit and the final one, we've even tried putting "The Spot" text onto the intro scene, which we thought might boost the vibe even more. Though, after constantly thinking it over, we decided to completely remove it, keeping the intro simple and clean.

Also, if you pay attention closely, we also removed a scene or two as time progressed.

The 5th one is... you guessed it... the final ad.
