This week we learned how to use digital HD cameras. We practiced taking wide, medium, and tight shots in the lunchroom room at Ladue. We took these shot and began a project on Final Cut Pro. Learning to use this program was challenging; however, the shortcuts and tips we were given helped speed up the process a lot. I am excited to begin editing my own videos using this software. Our first project included the wide, medium, tight, tight, and extreme close up shots we got in the multipurpose room. We used these shots in out first project, Circus Wagon, while experimenting with different transitions and special effects. In our second project, 6 Shots, we learned how to add audio transitions to make our videos smoother. It was challenging at times to follow along and trying to remember all of the shortcuts. I overcame this by writing them down so i would remember them for later. Over all this introduction unit may not have been the time to be creative, but it was necessary to prep us for future projects, during which we can be more creative.
