The Crucifixion Poster Analysis

Trailer Progress

Today, we had added new footage to our trailer, focusing on the two protagonists. With the help of a Final Cut Pro tutorial video, I have acquired the basic skills needed to create my own content successfully. Using different transition features such as a 'cross dissolve' or 'fade to colour' we have added in a range of smooth transitions to break up the different shot types. This effectively leaves the footage flowing smoothly to create a well-balanced and cohesive image. Limited due to a lack of footage of the characters, we decided to learn how to confidently work our way around the different and more complex features intended to be used in the near future. This included changing the duration of shots, added in sound effects and layering different images.

Final Cut Pro Practise

During this session, I have learnt how to use the Final Cut Pro software. Using an online tutorial video, I have acquired basic skills to learn how to complete a project. The video was a guideline to how to easily work with the software to create my own content, construction images together. Primarily learning how to add the clips into the software, I could easily understand the programme and decided to plat around making the content more complex. Adding transitions and filters to the clips was extremely easy once I could work my way around the tools, due to the video explanation. Despite my previous knowledge in constructing content together, the video was very helping in the process leading up to my own production. Basic skills that are key to the production of my trailer were acquired from watching and following the guidance video, resulting in a beneficial activity.
