My Experience on Video Editing!

Huh!
Holidays had come to an end.
If you were to asked me what have I done during the holiday, I could tell you - I DID A VIDEO.
Creating a video is not as easy as we always have in mind. Think of the one hour movies that we watch everytime in cinema, think of the short video vclip available in YouTube... They are not easy to produce.
The task was to create a 4min video. It took my days to complete the whole video!!!
Searching for suitable photos was very tiring as not all pictures were what you favour and applicable for your team. After gathering photos, music had to be carefully chosen if not the video would not going to look nice. (it will somehow affect the whole production)
Compiling all pictures together took me quite sometime as the order of the whole video had to be taken into consideration. After that, putting transitions also took me quite sometime.
Yet, that was not the worst thing ever!
As my partner and I were from different state, it was difficult to communicate and share opinions. It was very inconvenient to call as my partner couldnt visualise what was I trying to do. Worse thing - we couldnt send coz the file was too big!
Erm, it took my one whole day to upload the video!!! That was utterly torturing.......
BUT, I MANAGED TO GET IT THROUGH!

Audio editing

Audio editing is indeed green when it comes to me. I hardly have any idea on how to go with it.
I started with downloading a software - audacity, which I found it very difficult to use initially.
I spent almost two hours to get familirised with this software on how to cut parts of music, where to drag, where to add effects....
All the trials and errors have made me learnt something new today on the 8/8/08. Isnt that amazing?
Well, you may click on the link below and listen to what I have come out with. That was my first production. Hence, any comments?

Using Photoshop!

Based on the lecture last week, I finally regained my interest in 'creating' my own desired picture!

I was not in touched with the photoshop for a very long time. 10 years? Maybe...

Initially, I wasted the whole night trying to cut and paste some pictures into a new picture. Trying again and again till I got fed up and asked Bak how to do it.

Phew~ Cutting a picture really needs a good eye sight and skill.

Nevertheless, I have managed to do so (erm... I would give myself a satisfactory!)

The picture above is what I have come out with as a novice photoshop user!

Do give some comments on how to imporve it.
