Today we was in the editing suite, editing our prelim task films. This was my first time using Final Cut Pro. I got the basic knowledge of how to import and edit videos. It can be straight forward once you know what your doing.
When editing the film we found that we didn't film the 'Shot, Reverse, Shot' technique properly because we missed out the last shot (our shot reverse shot wasn't clear). Also we had to make certain shots longer than how they were filmed (to make it clear of what was being shown). We managed to use effects in Final Cut Pro, such as a Fade Out. We used this at the beginning and end of our film, which makes it look more professional. We added a title at the start of the film, where the name our our film would appear.
By the end of the lesson my group (Ellen, Matt & Myself) had completed the task set. We added/made a soundtrack to the short film (which we enjoyed doing because we could experiment with all the sound effects we had and add them into the film)!
I enjoyed this task overall because i now have a basic understanding of how to edit a video in Final Cut Pro! It also make me look forward to doing more filming and editing.
