Approaching the Deadline

Today Vidur and I did a lot of editing. We added captions in to the footage that we have and now that we have some more captions etc it has allowed us some more material to play with transitions and so on which has turned out rather well. We did however find something that we had difficulty with and needed to figure out. This was to make the background on premiere elements white as opposed to the standard black.

We didn't actually discover how to do this, however, we did find an alternative. This problem occured when we were bringing captions from photoshop over to premiere elements. What we did as opposed to just cropping around the word, which we had done before, we cropped the whole photoshop page and then edited the size of the font to as large as we needed to create the same effect as before just with a white background.

With the deadline approaching, we need to concentrate on getting all of our final footage filmed and put on to premiere elements so that we can edit a final draft.

Today (Thursday 9th of December) is really the last day that we have a chance to film this term before we break up for the holidays. I have written up a shot list that we need to stick by this afternoon and then we will add that to the footage we already have before we go home for the Christmas holidays where we will not be able to do any filming due to the school being closed and all actors living in different countries.
