Getting Used to The Technology

Hello to my wonderful blog!

 Since the last blog I made, I decided to get started with editing. Although, spoiler alert I need to get used to Premiere Pro. On my last project I used iMovie, so this is a drastic change. I started watching some YouTube videos and asking some friends from the production class in my school over tips for this technology soooo for the most part (hopefully) I understand it. 

Another technology I've been playing around with is fonts! Since font is another simple way to illustrate a story, last class, I had a group discussion to pick out the perfect font. And after 30 minutes we decided upon Shockwave for the title (that's the font name, not our title name) and for the credits credits, Ragelo Demo. For now these are just random words that sound weird. But I promise this will all fall into place after the editing but it's still worth mentioning how even the smallest details take a lot of consideration.

Anyways, back to the technology, Premiere Pro is definitely a step up from the tools I usually use. It’s a bit confusing, but also really cool to learn. 

This is when we were playing around with the clips, layering it, and incorporating the editing techniques I talked about last post.

Right now, I’m focusing on picking out the clips I want and cutting them down to the parts I need. It’s a bit of work, but progress is progress. I’m planning to finish the rest of filming by next week so I can really dive into editing.

It feels like a lot, but I’m taking it one step at a time. I’m excited to keep learning and make this film come together!
