Technical Tutorials

In this lesson we were concentrating how to use the green screen and how the whole process works. We got told that you can add in different locations on the green screen so it makes us look like we are at different locations. To do this you need to go on to final cut and work through stages to make the background of the green screen different.

In this lesson every one was given roles with camera's and lighting and music directors and then every one else was acting out a music video or so called lip synci

ng. It was a struggle for people to get up and act as they were too embarrassed and shy to perform infront of the class.

In the second part of the lesson people got my confident and my Partner Paul Knight and classmate Nathan Oliver went up and done a video for our group and we done a track by Giggs called 'Talking the Hardest'. As it was more of a grime track it allowed them to be themselves more as grime is mainly performed by the younger generation.

After they performed we uploaded it onto final cut and then started to edit it by adding in cuts and also using the green screen to add in effects for the background. Using final cut was a bit confusing and it was difficult to use. I had difficulty using it so I had to ask sir for help several times. I think that final cut is much more difficult to use rather then i movie as there are more tools to get familiar with and it looks like you need to have several lessons of practice to get used to using it.
