Major Project

Mine and Maddie's Twin project is well under way now we have filmed 2 episodes already and we are scheduled to film our final episode on Friday and then we will be filming our expert the following Monday. 

We are going to need to write a script for our expert or give him topics to talk about so that we get the information from him which we need.

Everything seems to be coming together at the moment and all of the footage looks really good it is just a matter of editing it all together.

After Effects: Puppets

Today we had to use after effects to make a still image move. This was really good for me to learn how to do as it will be really usefully when it comes to adding animation to our documentary.

After Effects: Green Screen

Today we had the chance to work with green screen again but this time it was just to help us understand how to edit it better rather than actually standing in front of the camera ourselves. Instead of using Final Cut to extract all of the green we used After Effects and we had alot better results.

With this one we learnt how to extract the green from a clip where the subject was moving.



As the subject in this clip has a lot of hair it was difficult to extract all the green but we learnt a few skills to help us with this.




With this clip we had to extract green from a clip where you could see the edges of the green screen. we had to crop around them and then extract the green.
