Back into the editing suite for a specialism lesson, on today's teaching plan we had:
Multi-camera editing which was a lot of fun and since I've seen Mark and Chris do it a few times before it was quite familiar. It was also refreshing to see how easy it is to do in Avid Media Composer.
Green Screening which was a lot more in-depth but equally cool to learn about. The gist is that you really want a good camera man to get the original shot as there is naff all you can do with a bad green screen effect. We got to work with a good and a bad scene with green in the background and got to fiddle with a few sliders and effects until it was all looking pukka.
I also totally didn't forget it was Burns Night yesterday and bought a reduced haggis from Lidl to lately celebrate the prestigious day. I then wouldn't even dream of wrapping the haggis in a burrito because I had nothing else suitable to eat it with... Maybe it did seem a bit desperate then but at least I convinced all of my housemates that haggis is in fact a bird. You can read the Scottish folklore here.
