The final edit

Posted on February 27, 2015April 29, 2020 by passionsofyouth in Basketball @ The Factory Youth Zone, Latest News

The basketballers hard at work, finishing their edits.

And now for the editing…

Posted on February 26, 2015April 3, 2015 by passionsofyouth in FC United, Latest News

Having filmed our material Jim and Alex are now showing us how to edit using Moviemaker, it’s a really simple programme and we are getting some good results. Chuks our coach is also learning how to edit.

 

Fine tuning

Frank’s doing some fine tuning on the audio and. with the music and noise of the guys training in the gym next door, he has to wear the headphones to hear his work.

 

Getting the right shot

Posted on February 12, 2015April 3, 2015 by passionsofyouth in FC United, Latest News

Framing a shot is very important and here’s Dom getting a little guidance from Alex. I think they are going for a mid-shot.

 This is Jack as Camera Operator and Jake as Director checking a shot.

Keep on editing…

This week the editing of mini films continues; below, Jack works away on his edit.

 

Filming continues

Posted on February 5, 2015April 3, 2015 by passionsofyouth in FC United, Latest News

Some people’s films are very personal, about how they got into football, often through the interest of their Dad or Uncle or someone like that, whilst others are about the skills. This is a long shot of a long shot.

 

Onto the editing

Posted on February 4, 2015April 3, 2015 by passionsofyouth in Collyhurst & Moston Lads Boxing Club, Latest News

The filming almost complete, Jim shows some of the group how to edit their material.

 

Onto the edit

Posted on February 4, 2015May 13, 2015 by passionsofyouth in Basketball @ The Factory Youth Zone, Latest News

As well as filming, Jim was showing members of the group how to edit.

And very quickly we were able to put together short films.

Come rain or shine…

Posted on January 28, 2015May 12, 2015 by passionsofyouth in Collyhurst & Moston Lads Boxing Club, Latest News

We continue to shoot the films, most of today’s session was outside in the pouring rain…

Here we are getting colder and wetter…

Do you think these two have just found a way to avoid the rain?!

Capturing Movement and Athleticism

Posted on January 28, 2015May 13, 2015 by passionsofyouth in Basketball @ The Factory Youth Zone, Latest News

This session was a practical introduction to the skills needed to create a film, operating the camera,recording sound etc.

The basketballers were particularly keen to capture the sense of movement and athleticism in their sport, not easy to do on camera, but they are up for the challenge!
