I've been using Adobe Premiere Pro, Audition, Photoshop and After Effects for over 2 years now. Although I still have a lot of learn, I'm confident with the software and I know how to edit basic. Although from the workshop I've learnt some really helpful short cuts with Premiere Pro that I didn't know before.
The task we were given was a 2 minute sort of documentary about coffee farmers in Uganda with a voice over and some titles. When editing these clips and audio together, we weren't given a script or paper edit to work off, so we had to figure out the other of the story from the audio and then decide ourselves what footage fitted in where. I edit together my audio first to get a structure for my edit and then put in the footage in order of the process of making the coffee. Below is my final edit.
I choose to go further than just editing footage with audio and also added in wild track and background sounds in the film to add in atmosphere and bring the project more to life and give it some character. As well I had a few issues with the opening titles as they were just with a black background but I wanted them on the footage itself. I did this by adding a Luma Key onto the titles and changing the settings around to make the titles more clear and work better.
From this workshop I've already began to think about different ways I could use post-production in my first project. Specifically with titles and audio.
