A Special Class

Throughout this class, I have learnt limited techniques on how to edit the film and how to actually use Final Cut Pro as a tool to help us edit the clip that we have produced on the First Class as a member of our group has forgotten to bring the tape and has left it at home. To solve this problem, we had to film the clips quickly to produce a complete film as the project is due today (including the editing process). This taught us a lesson on why we should be responsible for ourselves and also for our group. After repeating what we had done on the first lesson, we have started to edit with Final Cut Pro. Being a complete amateur towards editing, I had to watch Jerald Lim, a member of our group who has took film for two years, to teach us how to properly edit the film.

As time was running out, we had to leave when we were halfway done as we still had class to attend. So as a group, we have decided that we came back during lunch to finish the project off. However, a member of our group did not compromise and was not willing to work on the project at lunch, so we had to finish the project with a group member missing.

This lesson was really useful and had taught me a lot; not technically but it has taught be how to take responsibility for your own actions, and how to deal with urgent situations that occur during a limited amount of time. However as I am in a film class, I wish that next class I will gain more technical skills compared to the class today.
