Software

I spent today's lesson speaking with Mr. Earl, getting his advice and thoughts on which programme to use for the editing of our video footage; this is important because if Emily and I start to use the Premiere Pro which is available to us at any time, but only on the school network computers, we will be tied down to using this software at school only, so no editing at home. Where as if we were to use something else, like Adobe Premiere Elements 9, we could edit our footage at any time, or place, with no strings attached to us, we can virtually work outside the walls which programmes on the school computers would set for us. The down side is that i'd always have to have my laptop with me, as the programme we are getting is the mac version. Furthermore as i chose to come home and download the trials available to me via the Adobe website, i am waiting for it to download. I have the majority of the footage on my personal laptop, thus being able to edit it and test the capabilities of this software as soon it is done.

  1. You need to try to make sure that your blog is a little more focused on the technical side of things. Ideally, you would post video clips and screengrabs, and use those to illustrate your points. You might, for example compare Prem Elements with iMovie and explain why you have chosen one over the other. You could also compare footage from your shoot and some of the videos you have researched using screen or vid grabs.
