Week 5: Formatting 

For our last skills lesson, we focused on formatting for editting our videos from Wk 3's film session. Beforehand, James had compressed the files (film recording) for us using Handbreak.

I found ScreenFlow very easy and efficient to use for multi-cam editing. In this software, I was able to cut film and audio clips to the perfect moments using claps and audio spikes as guides. I was also able to add text, transitions, and adjust the frame of shots. A new skill I learned was using an MP3 converter on google to add separate audio on top of the film (e.g. background music, audio from my iPhone, etc). I would simply drag the converted audio into ScreenFlow and continue editing. I also learned how to make tutorials on the film-editing software, use screen captire, and embedding interactivity on a website.
