Video Editing Blog Reflection

 The process of learning premiere pro was at first quite a bit tedious, I had access to the ASB instructional videos which were very helpful when it came to the organization of the clips and workspace. But I’ve personally taken TV over the course of my high school career so therefore, I was able to pick up technical aspects like editing the timeline very well due to my previous experience with the program. My experience of creating the clip went well because of that, but I would say due to the plethora of tools that premiere has to offer that at times it was very overwhelming. But with a solid understanding of the basic tools I was able to make something I was proud of. 

Once I had a good foundation of the program my success lay within timing of the placement of the clips I chose, I was able to make a smooth transition with the audio of the interview with b-roll being shown on screen.

Another success I had was the choice of clips relating to what the interviewer was saying so the audience watching the clip would have a cohesive experience.

Also I was very fond of the lower third I created, I made sure to use a red border to captivate the audience's attention. 

Throughout the process of creating the clip I learned how crucial it is to match audio within imagery to elevate the final product, instead of just adding random clips to the audio, have the placement and timing of the individual clip have meaning. I’ll use this knowledge within my next project by using the evolved mindset of having everything have meaning and purpose. And I’ll use it throughout my portfolio by implementing this in my next projects.
