Going throught tutorials with Annie and Chris they Both said similar things about how we need to cutit down and cut out any unnecessary shots. Here were a few notes I made While chris was going through it and what he think should be changed:

Going through my notes i went and made the changes that chris suggested and thought they made a big difference to the pass of the film. I think that we had a lot of nice shots in but they slowed the piece down but i think cutting the scenes right down makes a big difference.
Sam found this Quote from a Dean lecture and thought it would be helpful when thinking up ideas on the effects during the dream sequence:
There is a rare but dramatic neurological disturbance that a number of my patients have experienced during attacks of migraine, when they may lose the sense of visual continuity and motion and see instead a flickering series of "stills." The stills may be clear-cut and sharp, and succeed one another without superimposition or overlap, but more commonly they are somewhat blurred, as with a too-long photographic exposure, and they persist for so long that each is still visible when the next "frame" is seen, and three or four frames, the earlier ones progressively fainter, are apt to be superimposed on each other. While the effect is somewhat like that of a film (albeit an improperly shot and presented one, in which each exposure has been too long to freeze motion completely and the rate of presentation too slow to achieve fusion), it also resembles some of E.J. Marey's "chronophotographs" of the 1880s, in which one sees a whole array of photographic moments or time frames
I think that this could be really good idea with the use of overlaying the seperate shots and playing around the composition and opacity. I think it was a good way of adding an effects to the dream sequence without taking away from the images and it just adds this sense of confusion almost to the sequence.
