Introduction to Final Cut Express and practice edit.

In todays lesson a group of the class were asked to make there way to the Media Mac Suite and take part in a tutorial of the Macs and FCE. We were taught a number of different things such as keyboard shortcuts, how to edit clips, select and move clips, render, and finally export. I found this a worthwhile experience and felt I learnt alot and am much more confident on the Macs.

To back the above up we were given a 60 second file of a selection of clips including a number of different camera angles and shots that previous media classes had compiled, we were asked to edit them and make them fit nicely and compile it into a well made and presentable Preliminary Task. I worked with Dean Houghton during this exercise and my partner wasn't in school on this particular date.
