Treatment (colour treatment, editing)

During the editing process, all of the shots in the past were colour treated. In addition, some of the shots were manually focused to give a clearer view of what is happening in shot. We decided to colour treat the shots in the past to make the scene appear old, it makes it clearer to the audience which shots are in the past and which are in the present.
The shots were edited so there was colour in the middle and they slowly fade out to black and white. This gives the impression that these scenes are old. In addition, this colour scheme connotes strongly to the war time or the 1930's/40's which is relevant to the genre of our film
