Editing CCRs!

Right after we filmed, I began editing the clips together to make sure everything looked good so that we wouldn't need to re-film anything. After I clipped everything together I made sure to do some colour correction and some video transition edits. This process was a breeze compared to editing Evanescent. The editing skills I learned during that time have proven to be incredibly helpful in this process. I filmed the podcast by first filming my dad saying all of his lines (so that the camera placement would be consistent) and then filming all of my lines separately. I had to make a lot of cuts and pair the shots taken of me with the shots taken of my dad. But other than that, I didn't make many edits since everything was filmed so smoothly. The most drastic changes I made were to the saturation, because the lighting of his office made our faces look bland and colourless. So, I brought some life into the footages and BOOM! It's done. 

When my podcast was finished I went to finish up the rest of my presentation (CCR question #2). The process went well since I already had most of my information written down on my blogs. However, the format that my blogs were written in do not fit into my presentation. So, I had to copy and paste the information, then rewrite it so that it fits my presentation. 

After I finished writing my script, all I had to do was record a voiceover. I could've done this in so many different ways. At first, I wanted to screenshot all of my pages and put them into an editing software, then recording my voice so that I would be able to make changes in volume or pitch (if necessary) easily. However, I discarded this idea after I remembered I wanted to add transitions into my presentation. Canva offers an array of slide transitions, so I decided to not use an editing software. I wasn't sure how I should've recorded my voiceover, but then remembered the music marketing project I did earlier in the year. In this project, we used a voiceover on our Canva slides too. Using the same method of adding a video, then lowering the opacity, I was able to make a video with voiceovers. 

I only ran into one slight problem, when I exported my video, I checked the audio and the slides and one of the texts were out of place. This was so annoying and I had to change the sizing of the text. Luckily, everything went well. 

I can't believe this is the end of my project. Stay tuned for my reflection!
