Final Cut Introduction

Our group today had recorded our video which was using the blue screen.My group consisted of Me and Ryan Rheeston and help from Cezary. Today we recorded the video in the hall behind a blue curtain. My role in the video was me behind the camera making sure it's the right shot for our group. Ryan Rheeston was an actor and also cezary, Ryan was a protestor and cezary was a news report.

The video was 30 seconds (blue screen video) long but we had to time our videos because on the blue screen their was going to be a video behind the actors of the white house getting attacked by and alien spaceship.The 30 second video is going to be put on the blue screen. Their was a certain time we had to react as the video we had to put behind the actors had an explosion at 25 seconds so we had to time that and also get the timing right with the actors which was a bit of chalanege for us but we manage to time with a mobile phone so we get the right moment in the video to react to.

The video we recorded was about a news reporter (cezary) interviewing a protester (Ryan Rheeston) and we had cezary interviewing ryan about the aliens on top of the white house. To prepare for this short recorded video we made script lines for ryan and cezary and also had to pick what role each person had as a group.

The equipment we used was a video camera in which i was in charge of as i set up the right shot for the group and make sure that every character or actors was in the shot. We also used a video editing software called "final cut extension" and we also used the apple macs to edit the videos.

When we had finsih the video we went on to the apple macs to go on to a video editing software called "final cut extented edition" in which we had set up our project name on their and got the video ready to render but we had a problem with our videos.The video file type that the video camera recorded was not the right file type for the video editing software (final cut extened edition) so to over come this problem we will have to get the videos we recorded in the hall and convert them to the right file type so that we can edit them on the video editing software.

Our aims and objectives was to make sure we had finsh editing two videos together in our groups and also get the blue screen effect. After we had finsh that we also had to upload it to youtubne and publish it on our blog.
