Filming software- Adobe premier elements

Our primary movie editing software for our movie opening is Adobe Premier Elements. This is the most advanced school software that we can edit our movie on, and as well as this it includes many more features than other programmes like Windows Movie Maker. The software allows us to manipulate our movie clips as well as sound and transitions and effects to allow us to produce the most effective movie opening we can.

Premier Elements enables us to have a scene-line which we can use to place clips in certain orders...and as well as this we can easily cut clips from the scene-line or even just cut out irrelevant points such as the very first few seconds of a clip. The software provides transitions and effects like fade to black, dissolve,3D and curtains however with a professional approach, we are only going to be using the fades- especially for our film credits.

Premier elements is the closest we are able to be provided with to a professional movie industry editing programme. For this reason, this particular software will enable us to create the most successful opening. We have considered that alongside Premier Elements we could experiment with manipulating imagery in Photoshop and even making final adjustments to our movie in its final upload to you-tube with the you tube editing tools to change contrast and any subtle filters.

our previous experimentation and experience with Premier Elements came into play with our 'what are you doing here' preliminary task where we experimented with the sound levels, addition of sound effects, cut clip beginnings and endings that were invalid, changed order and timing of shots. We additionally experimented with Premier Elements when we created our preliminary task with match on action and shot reverse shots and had to accurately edit the timing of shots here to make our clips seem realistic and structured.
