We just learned about how to operate a camera, how to shoot a basic video, and how to use Final Cut Pro! First, when operating the camera I learned all the basics of setting up the camera and activating it. I also learned which buttons to use to white balance and to adjust the iris, two functions I didn't even know video cameras possessed. Additionally, I practiced shooting wide shots (feet to head/entire scene shown), medium shots (waist up or a similar-sized area), and close-up shots (head only). Then, Mr. Goble introduced us to Final Cut Pro, a video-editing software. On it, I first learned how to add generator (title screens) to the beginning and end, and how to add music to a clip. Then, my partner Collin Clark and I shot a basic six shot sequence that Mr. Goble showed us: wide shot, medium, close-up, close-up, extreme close-up, and wide. We chose to shoot me playing a video game, with Collin doing some very excellent on-the-ground cinematography to get the footage. I then learned how to edit this footage in Final Cut Pro. I first added video and audio transitions, and I then edited the audio and video to make it more presentable. Thus, in conclusion, I learned all the fundamental of shooting and editing a video sequence.
