We done this using Final Cut Express. Through this we gained many new skills, which is helping us throughout the course, even now. We are still learning as there are many little, specific features in this programme that we comprehend when we do something new. It's a learning process - we improve each day.

Some of how we edited:
There are 4 main windows that it is divided into, these are: browser, viewer, canvas and timeline. We had to use all 4 as each one has a significant role. The browser is where we got all our clips and sound in a chronological order. What we had to do was drag our sound and clips into the browser from 'finder.' To then be able to visually see the clip we dragged it into the viewer, which enabled us to see the clip clearly. We then dragged the clip into the canvas and timeline in order to begin the editing process. The viewer is where we edited our clips and we were able to see our results in the canvas.
To add effects to our clip, I clicked on the 'effects' tab which displayed several different effect types. This included; video filters, video transitions, audio filters, (etc). Many times we had to use the 'crop tool' as there were unnecessary backgrounds visible.
