Today, I met Jason early before class to go over basic Final Cut Pro functions. I was really looking forward to this! Up until this point, I knew NOTHING about Final Cut Pro. When Jason and I sat down, I was very confused at first. However, he was a very good teacher! After a couple attempts showing me how I should do things, he made me do it on my own. At first, I was extremely timid! I didn't know where to begin or end. He proceeded to show me the short cuts on the key board like the "I", meaning the in point key and the "O" meaning the out point key. I messed up a little a first, still confused about what was being asked from me but as time went on I understood it! I find Final Cut Pro SO much fun! He had me add a B-roll clip after first and then he messed up a clip and had me fix it. I am very excited to get fully involved in the editing process. It is very interesting! I am having a really good time in my group and I am enjoying what everyone has to bring to this project.
