Intro to editing

We had a tutorial to editing using the programme Final Cut Pro on the MAC computers. We were shown how it should be done watching our teacher Mickey, then we were given many clips about a boy in a cafe and because the clip had been logged and captured; we were then able to play about with them and create our own sequence.

With my clip, i started off with the waitress stocking up the drinks and then talking to boy, and then having the boy just looking lost. following after that was when he was then looking outside the window and then havng the tramp coming into the cafe and having me eat food then turn towards the boy.

Later when everyone had their clips finished, we were shown how to add text into them for either comic effect or credits at the end, which was really fun. I added words to create a comic effect to show what the actors in the play were really thinking in my own interpretation

In General, i think the whole the lesson was really fun and will aid my editing in the final film we do. Also it helped to see how we can view things in different ways. As everyone got the same footage, but every one's clip did not turn out the same.
