Final Edit Of Livetype and Sound Filming Practice

The Bag Swap

To get used to using the camera and prepare us for our Thriller Opening Sequence, we did an excersice in class called "The bag swap."For this excersice we had to plan and film a short video of 2 people swapping bags. In class we created a story board to prepare us for this task and to make our filming schedule clear to us all. We shared the task of drawing the pictures and planning the shot between the 3 of us and all had an equal input. We decided that Josh would be in charge of the camera and me and T'sharna would be in the shots. Our location was college because of the time we had and because we thought that the use of the college lift would be a good way to catch the "Bag Swap."

Whilst filming, we included techniques such as; handheld camera, elipsis, tracking... We also used zoom, wich we realised does not look good on a moving shot.

Once we filmed our shots (this took 1hour), we went back to the classroom and used Final Cut Pro, to edit our shots into a sequence. We all worked togever closely for this task as it was our first experience of editing so we all wanted to get the practice in. Once we edited the shot into the sequence we wanted, we used Livetype to import the title into the sequence. We also used the programme Sound to import the music we felt matched the sequence.
