Since I am usually not the reporter, it was hard being in front of the camera. I know appreciate more the work of those who have the courage to be filmed. I wish I did not have a piece of paper in my hand, or if at least the shot was closer so the viewer could not see it. The people we asked to speak to us were really nice and opened to the idea. We also shot a lot of Broll so we had stuff to pick out of.

Some more Final Cut Pro
I am very excited because we learned how to do a couple more things in Final Cut Pro. Learning how to use other tools such as lower thirds, volume adjustments and transitions definitely made the video quality improve.
We also learned more about how to write and read the script, and how to more efficiently frame our shots. I would have never thought that color takes such a valuable part in videos, and now I know which colors go together as opposed to clashing.

Final Cut Pro
After many time consuming attempts, I finally managed to upload our team’s first video to our blog. It was an amazing experience working with such a high tech computer program. At times, it was really frustrating since either Mike or I, knew what we were doing, nor did the computer know what we wanted it to do. It was even more frustrating when groups around us had already finished cutting their final video and we didn’t even get to our first voice over. After two and a half hours of hard work and aggravation, our first video was done. I’ll admit it, its not the best student produced video; however, we promise we will get better at shooting video, talking on the camera, taking broll, and finally cutting video. Stay tuned to our blog for more videos about to come. Our next subject is the local farmers market that takes place on the Roger Williams University’s quad, every Friday afternoon.
