Pre-Task Editing

This week in media we edited the pre-recorded footage from last week using iMovie. We learnt about how to edit, import and export videos using iMovie. 

We imported the footage from the camera to the mac with the use of a firewire. We used the editing software on the macs to edit, cut and trim our footage and make it into a fluid and clean video that follows the 180 degree rule, shot reverse shot and match on match.

For our task we had to work in a group of three and record a scene of one character walking to a chair, sitting down and then engaging in dialogue with another character, before getting up and walking out. I recorded the footage using a video recorded. I had to take the 180 degree rule into account whilst recording as the other two in my group did the acting. We used the shot reverse shot technique for the dialogue. We used the macs do edit our footage together using iMovie.
