LO4 - Post-Production - Edits and Transitions report (P6,M3)

Shown below are photos that have been taken during the editing stages of the making of the idents.

In this screenshot, I have started to edit my ident. Here you can see that I have started to add all my footage that I am going to use. If I didn't like the footage, I have more footage available that I can drag on in the footage section. I had also started to add transitions to help make my ident more exciting. Furthermore, in this screenshot you can also see that I have started to mute all of the footage. This is because I can then add my music that I am going to use but also add in my voiceover. For example when I was switching scenes from Big Ben to the London Eye, I needed to ensure that the Big Ben chime did not clash with the music playing in the background. This is why I had to mute some portion of the chime so that the music comes in nicely and doesn't clash. Another reason why I had done this is so that there won't be any clashes with the ident music or the footage noise. I have also started to add in my red background to show my channel logo as well as me adding in the music and voiceover. I decided to add these in to strengthen my ident and make it more exciting.    

In this picture, I have placed all my footage that I am going to use in my ident. I have also added in a variety of transitions to help improve my ident. Some transitions I have added was a water drop effect and a right move transition. I had decided to choose these transitions because I wanted to add an affect where the audience would be interested and drawn into the ident and the channel. Furthermore, I had also placed a music track that is just below the footage. This is going to be in the background when recording my voiceover to keep the audience engaged and not create boredom. To finish off my ident I had placed a red background and inserted text. This is so then the logo of the channel can be represented clearly. For example, at the very end of the ident, I had placed a transition to fade to black. This is shown during the ending of the footage of the screenshot. This would be an effect that would help present the next programme that was going to show. In this case my show was Homes Under The Hammer.
