week ten

Hey Jenna,
In todays lesson it was all about video.
Although the videos at the start of the lessons, on the lecture were very weird, quite strange and I did not get the message about life in the 5 cycle piece. They were still good and well constructed.

My videos have had some dramas with them, as my dad accicdently deleted them off the camera. He was able to recover them from the camera but for some unknown reason they were not reading on the mac, so Jenna gave me a lesson on how to use final cut pro as i have this program at home and i will hopefully be able to edit them at home.

So this lesson using what video i have i have sat and played on the program learning how to use, i have used it before in high school so it was not to bad just needed a refresher lesson.

I plan to not be in my dance piece and have the girls do my piece in the studio and then have them do it again out in the car park. When presenting my piece i plan to have both playing at the same time. Showing a contrast between day and night. I plan on filming this on thursday and i plan to do some research on video art and in particular video art using dancers if i can find anything to get some new ideas.
I may have the girls do it at dfferent times, coming together at the chorus.

This final cu pro program is a little bit getting on my nerves because of the time it takes to render.
but hopefully it all works how i ahve planned.

have a good one
sarah
