SnapsPro and ScreenFlow

It's coming to the time where we have to start making our evaluations. I feel that I have got much to say when writting in my Evaluation, so what I have done it download a software program on trial from the internet on called SnapsPro and the other ScreenFlow. 


I downloaded SnapsPro first to see what it was like and how the sound sounded of me talking to throught how to do things of 'Final Cut Pro' but when I played it back to me I found out that myself taking had not been recored. So I deleted SnapsPro and tryed out how ScreenFlow was.


I much preffer ScreenFlow to SnapsPro, with ScreenFlow it's very simmiler to SnapsPro but there's sound thats a much better quiality then I thought.


Below I have taken a few screen shots of myself downloading SnapsPro and ScreenFlow, I have uploded the screen shots via Photobucket:



 

I am going to use screen flow to document myself making my poster, magazine artical reviwe, editing in final cut pro and making my final overall eveluation.

New Music with ending

The artist to this music is: 'Wentilators' and the music I have choosen by them is 'Pastic_Man', I have only used the begging of the song seeing as there was no words, and I feel with the pictures I have choosen no word would be able to match them as 'Dog Days' did by Florence and the Machine.


But the begging of 'Plastic_Man' is the sort of upbeat music/tune that I was looking for.
Hears the youtube vidio that shows you the ending of my documentary




Hears a screenshot of the setting I have set my YouTube uploade to:

New Music

I have tryed everything to get permission for 'Dog Days' by Florence and the Machine, but there's been now luck, so instead I went on to google and type in... (Prezi Presintsion below:)

Evaluasion Plan

I've made thsi Prezi mind map, that contains my designs for my evelutaion. I have only shown the designs, I have written anything undernithe them. The designs are in order as they are shown. There are four questions that are:

  1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and convention of real media products?
  2. How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?
  3. What have you learned from your audience feed back?
  4. How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages? 
For each question I have design 6-8 boxes of what I feel that question is asking. I am going to design my eveluation using Microsoft PowerPoint. 
Below is my mind map.

How Make Titles on Final Cut Pro

I started using livetype to make my titles for my documentarty,but there wheren't turning out the way that I wanted them to. Wanted my titles to be very simple and plain, but I found it very hard to make them in livetype in that way. Below is a small vidioe of all the titles I made in livetype. 


I knew that you could make titles/text in final cut pro, but I didn't know how so I used this vidio to find out how I made just very simple and plain text. It was very helpful and now I know how to creat text in final cut pro.

Trying to asked Permisson for Music

Even thought I got permisson for florace's cosin. I know I have to get actural permisson from either Universal Island Records where Florance and the Machine recored 'Dog Days' or from there Manager 'Mairead Nash'. I've e-mailed Island Records lots of time but haven't hear back from them, and I can't seem to find how to contact Mairead Nash, but I am going to keep trying. 


Below are screen shots of the e-mails I sent to Island Records:


First E-mail I sent:

Finding Dalmatian Fonts

I try to downlode a picture image of a dalmatian furr in to my font on indesign, but I couldn't work out how, so instead I search 'Google' for Dalmatian fonts to downlode. I found a huge amaout. I only downlode three diffrent ones. I've screen shot each of them in Macrosoft Word as they would be as the title on the Magazine Artical:



 This Dalmatian font on the left is my favorite is called as a font 'Dalmatian'. I think this might be the one I uses.



This font to the right is know as 'Dalmatian By Zane' I like this one so mabey I might use it in the poster.


I'm not keen on this font that much, but I have added it in as an oppsion is called '101 Puppies SW'.

Magazine Photos


I really like this photo to the right and I am thinking of using it for my Magazine Article. The is girl playing with her beloved Dalmatians. I will uses this a my main photo (large one). I used photoshop elements eight to turn it into black and white and crop it. I feel it's more eye catching to the public. And it brings out the Dalmatians more. I have shown you the coloured one below, that's uncorped.










Below is another image that I really like and I think I am going to use, but between the columns. I used photoshop elements eight to add contrast, because it was too dule. 

Magazine Drafts






I have used Microsoft word to create my drafts for my Magazine Articles. The first screen shot you see on the left is my first draft. I made it into bullet points, so that I jotted down my ideas. So it's very mixed. I then had help putting it in to a readable order


Below is my second draft. I have split into to parts. The first part is my interview with the interviewer. And the second is the Article it self. I found it much essay to type, if I pretended I had some one interviewing me. I know that there are a few spelling maskats, but I will re-croett them befor e I tune into an article.

Now that I have my article in order I am going to add it in to 'Adobe InDesign' to tune it into an Article with images. Also to cheek to see if I have written effuf.

Editing Dog Footage in Final Cut Pro

This is how I edited the dog scene using final cut pro and the prezi to up load. 

Editing the Car Crash Sound

To find the sound effect for the very begining of my documentary. I seach in Garageband loops and Final Cut Pro sound effects and could find nothing on a car crash sound or even near to it. I then remebered 'Soundtrack Pro' and search 'Car crash' nothing came up so I went through all the oppsions that I was given until I came to 'Imapact and Crashes' where I found 'Automobile crash' which was perfect, so I edited it and saved. I then uploaded it to final cut pro and added it to one of my scenes. 

Below I've have used QuickTime Moive to conver the unedited version of 'Automabile' sound from soundtrack pro, I then used Blogger uploads to up lode it. 




Below are some screen shots I took that aren't in order. 

Editing Interviews

I have upload 18 screen shot of how I have come to editing the interviews. It was hard because I don't really know what to expect when it I have done my interview (which was this weekend 11th-13th of Febuary 2011), but I have an idea on how I am going make a footage out of it all.
