Creation Of My Video

Linaah and I were in a group to create our video. we decided on a video about dancing, which we narrowed down to the dance style "Jerking". This was decided due to the fact that we would be able to get enough footage as we have friends who dance this style. On the weekend we borrowed out an art camera and went down to film them dance on the street. We made sure that we got plenty of variety and shots so as to create an interesting video and so that both Linaah and I would have different footage.

Once we had our footage we continued onto our individual work. I uploaded the footage to iMovie and started to cut and play with the different effects. Once I had my footage on the timeline and cut as I liked, I worked on synchronizing the footage to work with the music. I changed songs a number of times, trying to find one that I liked and suited the theme of my video.

After I had finished using the effects in iMovie, my video was still did not have the right effect so I moved it into Final Cut Pro to work with more effects.
