editing Just for amusement.

I thought it might be a good idea to shoot a sequence where a guy gets stabbed, using the reverse effect. That is I had my actors act it out in backwards, then I would reverse it in post.

I thought it would be cool if I could shoot a stabbing all in one shot, but it looks horribly funny in reverse as you could see lol.

Turn the sound off, and it doesn't seem so terrible at all.

In fact, you should try using parts of this in that particular scene. Experiment a bit with it, with the other footage.

It's all about the grand illusion, right?

Really? Well yes I plan on using parts, but are you suggesting I use that actual stab itself?
