This week in class we talk about our shooting progress. As in our group, we manage to finish up to 80% of our shooting and we will have to re-shoot few bad shoot and get some extra good shots. We stay in our class for like an hour after update Mr Eric of our progress and we continue on our shooting.
It has been a while for me to be a cameraman, took me quite sometime to familiarize from holding to moving the camera without making shaking shot. It is quite disappointing that we do not have the steadicam accessory in Uni, so its hard for us to take a moving shot, so we decided to shoot most of the shot using tripod and dolly to make it a smooth and still shot.
After we get all the necessary shots, I get all the equipments to Aaron's room to export out the video. We face our first problem as we tried to copy all the clips straight from the memory card without using the line in capture in final cut, which all our video clips quality are bad and you can clearly see the line while we panning or zooming. Thanks to Denise told us that we will have to use that function to get a better quality clips. Aaron then play his role of an editor to show his editing skill using FCP, I sit beside him to direct him in arranging the sequence of each video and the transition effects between.
Mr Eric passed me 20+ different genre of music and sound effect CDs to pick one of them for our video background music. I have picked few CD which the themes are closer to what we want, and Aaron tried out a few music and we finally get one suitable and match our video.
Continue our editing progress ...
