THE EDITING PROCESS FOR MY NEWS BROADCAST OPENING SEQUENCE.

The software that our teacher had recommended us to use was "Adobe Premiere Pro". Myself and my other peer (Anam) had never come across to using this software before, but luckily, Alex, who was the experienced one about using this particular software, had showed and taught us how to use the programme. Since then, we both grasped the techniques. After being taught, we all had editing chances of 3 times each, ensuring that everyone is comfortable with the ideas and the software.

After filming, going over and analysing my news reporting scene, we had to undergo the editing, special effects and background process to set the scene. 

The key and simple task in this editing process was to trim the separate videos of me and merge them into one. We had gone over videos several times to ensure that we have not cut too much or too little of parts of my scenes. The colour correcting aspect of editing was the most challenging part as well as adjusting the lighting. This all needed to be fully covered, enabling me and the background to appear more naturally.

 These are some pictures showing the type of software we had to use in order for the editing to take place.We had helped on another and focusing on key elements such as close up and zoom. We had also used a YouTube video which had guided us to removing the green screen and adding our own background as well as adjusting the outline of the sides of my face and my body as a whole. When coming near to the editing, we had noticed that my body outline was green, so we had researched and tried various techniques in order to get rid of the green outlines, This was accomplished and and ensured our editing was a huge success. It is visible how the blue background and headline infant of me on the screen, adds realism to the scene, also taking into account my suit blending in with the presentation and the scenario.


The experience was breathtakingly enjoyable because we had learnt new skills such as editing on a new software. This had initially provided us with the base layer for editing for the rest of the opening sequence, allowing us to use the skills we have learnt and also to develop them further via trying new methods, resulting in a better outcome.
