Annie 4-19-11

These last couple weeks have been crazy! The post production is well into effect. We are well into the editing. I was taught how to edit a couple weeks ago and since then I have been learning more and more short cuts.
Last Tuesday, the instructor showed Jason how to do lower thirds. I had noticed that there wasn't anything that I was responsible for in the post production so I began to put my time out there. I really want to help out with as much post production as possible. So I asked Jason to teach me how to do lower thirds. He showed me how to add text and an animation for when another person in the video is introduced. He also showed how to fade the animation in and out. It was really cool! I feel really good about all this.
The only frustrating aspect about lower thirds is most of the editing has to be complete in order to add lower thirds. Today's class time, I will be sitting by Taylor watching/helping him edit, figuring out how to make credits with Marleen and organizing the lower thirds that I believe I want to add into the video. These next couple weeks are going to be extremely busy but I am very excited for the challenge. I can't wait to see our hard work payed off.
