Video and Sound Production

Exercises 


Week 1 

For our first week, we were introduced to Adobe Premier Pro and were given the time to get used to the editing application.

Our first exercise was to edit a Smint video.

For our second exercise, we had to edit a Doritos advertisement that had been cut up, and arrange it into its correct sequence.

Week 2 

For our second week, we were introduced to the different kind of shot sizes used in videos and the purpose behind why different shots are utilised depending on the focus of the video. We were then split into pairs and practiced how to take 8 different kind of shots.

In preparation for our Audio Dubbing Project 1, we were instructed to prepare a spreadsheet listing out all the sound effects required in the video clip provided by Mr Martin. We were also required to record the dialogue featured in the video, and were taught how to pitch it lower or higher in Adobe Premier Pro during the tutorial.

During our first class, we started off by tracing the Vormator Challenge shapes with the pen tool.  Figure 1.1: Vormator shape tracings (Week 2)  We were then told to come up with a monster/creature using these Vormator shapes, and to apply the Adobe Illustrator exercise techniques that we would be learning in the upcoming weeks, to our final Vormator creature.  Personally, I don't think I'm the most creative person when it comes to character design, but I knew that I wanted to do something cute.
