THIS IS WHERE THE ‘NEW EVENTS’ STARTS THIS MEANS THAT A FILE IS OPENED AND THE VIDEOS ARE PLACED IN HERE BEFORE BEING PLACED IN THE TIMELINE.

THIS FEATURE LETS ME HIDE FOOTAGE THAT I HAVE ALREADY MADE. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN I MADE THE TRAILER I WAS ABLE TO MAKE A NEW PROJECT AS I WAS WORKING ON ANOTHER PROJECT.

THE FEATURE OF FINAL CUT PRO X HIGHLIGHTED IN RED SHOWS THE CLIPS THAT I IMPORTED FROM THE CAMERA THAT WAS FILMED. WHEN WANTED TO THE TRIM THE FOOTAGE I WAS ABLE TO HOVER THE MOUSE OVER THE FOOTAGE AND TRIM IT TO THE PARTS AND LENGTH I WANT.

THIS SHOWS HOW MANY CLIPS WE RECORDED TO MAKE OUR SHORT FILM.

THE EFFECT HIGHLIGHTED ‘YELLOW’ SHOWS THE EFFECT THAT WAS PLACED ON THE CLIPS THESE ARE USUALLY TRANSITION EFFECTS/ TITLE EFFECTS.

THE ‘GREEN’ HIGHLIGHTED THE EFFECT THAT WAS PLACED ON THE TITLE & THE TITLE.

THE ‘BLUE’ HIGHLIGHTED THE SOUND TRACK USED IN THE BEGINNING PART OF THE SHORT FILM.

ADDING TEXT : FINAL CUT PRO X

o ON FINAL CUT PRO X I WAS ABLE TO LEARN NEW SKILLS BUT ALSO DEVELOP THINGS THAT I’VE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO ESPECIALLY WHEN MAKING A SHORT FILM.

o THE SCREENSHOTS OF OUR SHORT FILM ABOVE SHOWS HOW FINAL CUT PRO X WAS USED TO PRODUCE OUR FILM.o IT WAS VERY SIMPLE TO USE, WE DRAG THE ‘TEXT’ ONTO THE TIMELINE ON THE LEFT AND THEN CLICK ONTO THE

PURPLE BOX WHICH IS ‘TEXT’ TO CHANGE THE TEXT, WE WOULD THEN CLICK ON THE BOX ON THE TOP RIGHT WHICH ALLOWS THE TEXT BE CHANGED IF NECESSARY.

ANOTHER KEY ASPECT OF USING FINAL CUT PRO X FOR THE EDITING PROCESS FOR MY ADVANCED PORTFOLIO IS THAT I WAS ABLE TO USE OTHER SOFTWARES SUCH AS GARAGEBAND TO CREATE THE VOICEOVER THAT THE ARROW IS POINTING FROM.

BY DOING THE VOICEOVER IT HELPED US EXPLAIN THE STORYLINE OF OUR SHORT FILM FURTHER BY HAVING AN INTERACTION WITH THE AUDIENCE .

THE SECOND ARROW SHOWS THE INPUTED OUTSIDE MUSIC THAT I HAVE DOWNLOADED ONLINE AND DRAGGED ONTO FINAL CUT PRO X TO BE USED AS BACKGROUND MUSIC.
