Bait Tutorial
To be able to make an opening sequence for our Thriller Opening Sequence you have to be able to use Final Cut Pro. Our class had a bait tutorial which teaches us how to do skills on the apple mac computers.
When final cut pro is opened there are four different sections; the timeline, the files, the canvas and the viewer . All of the shots are located in the canvas in the top left of the screen. The timeline is where you create your final piece of work. To drag a shot into the timeline you have to select the part of the shot you want to do this, you need to decide where your in and out points are, for this you have to press 'i' from where you want it to start and 'o' from when you want it to end.
We learnt how to make match cuts for example we used a man taking a boys food then, it cuts from the boy with the food in his hand, then back to the man.
we also learnt how to close gaps quickly without having to move each one seperately to save time. To do this you have to press 'ctrl' and click on the mouse then click on 'close gap'. To put effects on to a clip, for example to add a dissolve you have to click in between the two shots, go to 'effects' then 'video transitions' then go to 'dissolve' then add the type of dissolve that you want.
