How are you using the editing process to create a coherent meaning from your collection of shots?

The editing process possessed a challenge on creating a suspenseful and mysterious film opening. Watching the rough cut raised a few of concerns while trying to maintain a coherent meaning because there were a series of shots that made no sense in being included into our opening, but their purpose was to add the literal meaning of our character going insane. We also did not want any sort of sunlight included in our shots so we planned to edit some color changes in our film opening and we knew we had to cut some scenes where it was too long and unnecessary.
