This is an image of us working in progress, as you can see the shot shown isn't really of a high standard this is because we were unexperienced with using the programs on the apple mac. When we began editing it also wasn't of a high standard the shots fixed together weren't as smooth and the positions of the shots weren't as accurate as planned. However as we began to improve our skills and knowledge our filming and editing improved.

Our final edit- Over the process of making the 'Hollow pond' we gained a lot of skills with the help of using programs such as 'Live type', Final cut pro' the use of using different programs enabled us to progress. We've learnt how to use the cameras to a professional standard, set up and use the equipment effectively such as using the tripod, positioning the camera to our ideal shot. In addition to using the camera the skills we acquired are ejecting the memory card, inserting the memory card and putting the camera into focus using the zoom.

We also improved how to film the shots we wanted. One example of this is when we were editing. The skills learnt enabled us to use more than one effect in one shot. We learnt how to use timing effectively and the shots we produced showed our skills had improved.

When comparing this final edit, we can see how much we have improved. Our edits and transitions are smoother.
