Unit 16 - How to use final cut pro



For this task I must show clear instructions of the transitions during my editing process. 


During my editing process there were some scenes that I will not need and will need to get rid off. A tool that really helped me in getting rid of unwanted footage is blade. All I had to do was select on the scenes I did not want and the blade tool will delete it from my video.







Another tool that I used was select. This was very helpful during my editing process as if I need to move a scene somewhere else I could just click on the select tool and I was able to pick up a scene and put the scene where I desired it to go. 











If you wanted too you could change the color of specific scene. I found this very helpful during the editing process as if I wanted to change the color of my editing I could just click on a scene then the color and it had changed. I had used this effect for my flashback. I found this good to use because the audience could see it was a flashback due to the color change. 





Because my short film was a horror we thought it would be good to have some scary sound in the background so we can scare our audience. On final cut pro there a variety of sounds you can use and it was very hard to pick out a suitable one due to the many sounds.  However, I was able to pick out this sound, which really worked well with my short film. 




Even though my group and me did not take away any sound I thought it would be useful to show how to do it anyway. It’s pretty easy and all you have to do is click on the scene you wish to take sound away from and go to detach audio and it’s done. You have no sound and can do whatever you like.
