This week , according to my schedule, I am supposed to be nearly finished however I am quite behind as I have not been able to film as much as I would have liked to and also have not had as much editing time as I needed. Also when I have been editing my documentary, it has taken a lot longer than I thought it would as I am not very good when it comes to using final cut express as I have not had that much experience using it so I have been watching some tutorials on youtube which have helped a little. This week I have been experimenting with different editing techniques such as trying different filters and transistions however it is didfficult to use these and make my documentary look professional, as some of the transitions appear very unskilled and unprofessional, such as the 'page peel' and 'slide'. However I have been successful in creating a gery filter over some of the more emotive shots where I want to convey a certain emotion. It also ttok me a while to import some music into my documentary, as I found it hard to choose and then had problems actually importing it, I also found that error messages that appear in final cut are very confusing and not helpful, however, I eventually did it by going to File > import > file and locate the file.
Dragging the audio file from the browser to the timeline and creating a new track so I didn't lay it on top of existing audio, I then adjusted its length to match the title and used some audio transitions to fade in and fade out.
