This project was the first time I have edited a video, and there are several things that I have learned from this project. I used iMovie to create the video. Adjusting the background for the green screen was a new experience for me. I had to think about the properties of both my media and the software I was using. Understanding the original use of the tool gave me a better sense of how to manipulate it to my will. 

As I modified the file with Camtasia, I was able to define more details like interactive text, audio leveling, and overlays. 

 

Most of my shots were Midshots and a few cutaway shots. I tried to follow the rule of thirds. But I found it a bit difficult. I was in a recording studio that is set up for a two person crew and I was the only one on set. But overall, I think I learned several new techniques and skills!

 

I used three different types of camera to create this video: a mounted studio camera, a handheld Go-Pro that was remote controlled and a personal video recorder. I was able to blend footage from each camera into the final product.
