Post-production Diary.

Yesterday i began picking out different clips from the footage I had taken in the previous week. This made it easier to start editing today, as I knew what I could and couldn't use when putting together my final project. Because of the set backs during filming this meant that a lot of the footage wasn't to the standard needed, however I still had to use some of said footage, not having the option to re film. 

After checking each of the clips I was left with those of which I would use to put in my advertisement. Today I began putting these clips together. 

I took the time to learn how to change a green screen into my desired background, using the 'Ultra Key' in the 'Keying' effect, choosing the colour of the green screen from the clip using the eyedropper. Placing the clip over top the background I needed allowed the green screen to take full effect. I also added the mind logo to the timeline in the place I hope to finish my advertisement at, having it there gave me an idea of how much space I will have to create my final project.

I had to change a lot of the clips I had planned to use, having to change out some shots due to them not fitting in the advert the way i had hoped. However, filing through older footage gave me the opportunity to replace those shots (even if they weren't what I had originally wanted.)

Today I began adding sound using a royalty free website, 'Bensound', this will allow me the freedom of uploading my advertisement to YouTube without it being copyrighted. Doing this made me realise that I would have to move around some of the clips in order for them to fit with the sounds I could use. Making the task that much more difficult however it helped to make my advert better and seemingly more finished.
