Meeting #5 - Using Final Cut For The First Time

Here is an image of my group having our first go on Final Cut which is an video editing software on the Mac computers. During my first time using Final Cut, my group did not import any footage or video so we decided to practice the the credits and titles. I had never used the editing software before so I found it difficult to adapt to the terminology and the tools that are used on the Final Cut software. As you can see on the image below, we started with creating some text for credits and titles.

When using the Final Cut video editing software, I found it difficult at the start because I didn't really
understand how to use the software, but after a few tries and some practice with using some of the tools, as well as asking my teacher for some advice on how to use the software, I started to gradually get the hang of it, even though I was only using some of the basic features on Final Cut. Here shown on the image above, you can see that our group created the title credit for our opening sequence. The title that we created was "The Slayer". As a conclusion, I found this session of using Final Cut fun and quiet challenging considering I had never used video editing software before.
