London Film Academy 18.06.18

London Film Academy 

The following week, we went back to the London Film Academy and learnt how to edit on the Apple Mac. 

The learning process consisted of knowing what the shortcut keys were and how to simplify the editing process by using them. These were keys J,K and L on the keyboard. By using these keys it helped enable us to fast forward and rewind clips. 

Colour correction was also taught to us. This helped us understand that if a clip was too blue or to yellow that the saturation could be changed, along with making the picture darker or lighter. 

Other aspects of the day included learning how to edit audio (fading out the music), cutting the footage provided (making it longer or shorter) and learning how to storage footage correctly on the Mac. 




After leaning how to edit, what keys to use and how to change the style of pictures and videos. I have taken into consideration that i can use these skills in my post production. I can use colour correction when editing the posters and the DVD covers. I can also use the skills of cutting the images, photoshopping etc to enhance the product. As well as this, learning which colours go well together has also had an effect on me to which I can now match the colours to their suitable partner for the website design.

Shot List

Shot List   The Silhouette  These images are a representation of how i want my pictures to look for the back of the DVD cover or for one of the posters which need to be designed.  A  silhouette is the  image of a person, animal, object or scene  represented  as a solid shape of a single color, usually black, with its edges matching the outline of the subject. The interior of a  silhouette  is featureless, and the whole is typically presented on a light background, usually white, or none at all. They simplify the image, you're not distracted by details of what they're wearing, are they pretty or ugly, what color is their skin, do I like the details in the subject, etc., it makes you concentrate and generalize the image such that you, a third party can directly relate to and hopefully feel the moment.   Silhouettes can also be looked into as representing  the big picture, and also it better represents an image th...
