Crit and Changes

Yesterday I presented my finished video to the class, overall the feedback was good and I came away from it needing to made a few changes. The comments that were made were:

• The start of the film needs to be faded up from black to bring it in gradually and beep made quieter
• Some of the text could do with being in a different font face to make it stand out
• The "ask not what" section could do with staying on the screen longer as it is the main part of the speech.

Changes

To make the first change of making the countdown fade up from black, I opened my final cut version of the video and using the pen tool dragged the opacity line down to 0 at the start and 100 at the end of the clip so it gradually fades in and to change the beep level I simply dropped the level down to -12 for the whole beep sound clip.

Because of the time scale I have, I wont be able to change how the text looks as it would be too time consuming and with it I risk putting my whole video out of time.
