Todays Lesson - 6/12/10

In today's lesson we focused our time on our music video. The first half an hour to hour was spent on splitting clips and adding the right effects to them. The clips we were mainly looking at were the head and body jerks. The effects were chose on these were the "Fast/Slow Reverse" and the "Ghost Trails". It took us a while to choose the best speed and the opacity for the ghost trails but we got there in the end. 

We chose to have the Ghost Trails settings at:

Effect In: 00:00

   Effect Out: 04:18

Tail: Long

Steps: Long

Opacity: Opaque

We chose these settings because we wanted to be able to see the multiple trails as Harriet Gibson's head moves. We are going to use these exact settings for each body and head jerk clips.

Our next task is to re-film a dance sequence in the dance studio at college. We have planned to shoot from 3:30pm til 5:30pm on Wednesday 8th December. Our teacher Mel will stay with us during the shoot to give us help when we need it. 

The project deadline has been forwarded to January 2011. This will give us plenty of time if we need to re-film.
