FINAL CUT PRO
Throughout the process of making my film I was able to use a editing
programme called final cut pro. The software allows us to transfer a
video onto a hard drive, where it can be edited, processed, and put in a
wide variety of formats. Before we did this with our final product we
got to have an hour lesson just practicing and learning our way around
the programme. It allowed me to understand how to put certain shots
or certain sections of a shot into order. It also allowed me to put
transitions in to make the extract flow without jumping to on scene to
another.
Once I got the hang of using Final Cut it was easy to use.
HD CAMCORDER
Also when filming I learned how to use a small HD camcorder. This
allowed me to become more familiar which with handling the
camera itself. Where as I am used to using me camera on my
IPhone! The camera have a highly developed sensor which allows
good noise reduction to performance, records bright, high quality.
It also has a zoom making it possible for you to capture everything
when filming.
ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES
There are many advantages to using final cut pro and a high
definition camera. By using a HD camera it allows you to film and
transport all your footage on to the apple mac and then on to final
cut pro. Final cut as a system that even if you ex of the
programme your work is automatically saved so it will never be
lost. A camera will have a memory card in it and a disadvantage
to this could be that you use up all your memory and have to get a
new one and if the process of doing this you could lose the old
one with your footage on it.
