finished editing and problems

We have finished editing now and there are several good and bad sides to the finished project, i like the general all round feel of the music video, and am generally pleased with editing to the beat and the footage. However there have been issues with the technical side of editing. At the very beginning of the project, on uploading the footage i found final cut wasn't working, so i had no choice but to upload to imoive because i didnt have enough time, so by uploading to final cut then exporting the footage and the importing into final cut we found the quality of the footage had been dmaaged. There now is many lines running through the footage, runing the overall effect of it. Three quarter of the way through rditing the music video aswell, i finished, saved it, only to find that the programme would not open it again, so i have to re-edit from the last saved point.

evaluation questions

G324 is marked and internally standardised by the centre and marks are submitted to OCR by a specified date, a sample is then selected for external moderation. The unit is marked out of a total of 100 marks: 20 marks for the planning and research and its presentation; 60 marks for the construction; 20 marks for the evaluation.
In the evaluation the following questions must be answered:

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?

What have you learned from your audience feedback?

How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

Our group has produced a lot of work today. We've equally distrubuted the wrk within our our group very well today, Laura and Charlie have decided to make a digipack, so aura researched them while charlie photoshopped some pictures that an be used inside it. Me and Rachel worked on the editing and fixing any technical rpblems we had. We looked at each piece of editing and following our storyboard we ensured that all the footage looked best in that place. We have a lot of the editing done having a very successful day

uploading film

when we uploaded the footage we had recorded we faced problems uploading to final cut. n the first lesson we found final cut was not working on the school macs, but knowing how to upload to imovie and finding that it was working we decided to upload to that software and then convert it into final cut later on. After our footage was uploaded, we consulted our technichain but also was able to figure out for ourselves how to convert the file. Final cut was working the next lesson so everything worked out well ad i feel confident when facing a problem that we will all be able to sort it out with extra help.

Charlie mainly created this using her mac, although we did all contribute to the positions, draw the pictures and assit her in creating them using photo shop. Laura resreached further into these and we created different design layouts to determine which one was best fitted, Laura uploaded these.
