Preliminary Task - Editing skills

Using The MacBook

I processed and edited my preliminary task through the apple MacBook. Even though the system was completely strange we managed to pull it off. We briefly brainstormed our ideas and started editing.

The Macbook had many interesting things we could play around with. Things such as editing sounds, putting effects on the clip like inserting non degetic sounds etc. I believe that me and my group edited our preliminary task pretty well, however i thought we could of sorted out th e sounding a bit better.

 Most Challenging Thing Whilst Editing And Recording 

The most challenging thing was to learn how to use the Macbook; we struggled quite a bit until we learnt how to use it. Also applying the 180 degree shot whilst recording was slightly difficult, but we still gave it a shot. Another problem which occurred was that we worked quite slowly as there was many parts of the video to edit and we only had one Macbook, maybe next time we could get the group member to bring in his Macbook from home.

Things which I have learnt through editing

·                     The edits can set and change the mood of the scene.

·                     You can change the transitions/sound etc.

·                     You can add Music/background themes etc.
