our second lesson on developing our video involved another peice of software on the i-macs which was garage band.
This is a program which you develope your own music because when you make your own videos you arent allowed to use another authors music because that would be copy writing.
so on garage band you had a choice of lots of different little strings of music played on different instruments which when combined together could make an interesting tune.
we had to manage to figure out how to time it so perfect that the music went with our video we created as well as timed to perfection. some how we had manage to do this really easierly even though i thought it would be really hard. a factor that helped is the group i had been working in had past knowledge of how to use this program and knew there way around the i-macs very well.
so the garage band was a perfect top off to the video we had created and we thought it was a master peice.
the things that i had learnt from this lesson were how to use garage band and how important it was that we created our own music instead of copying others creations.

i-macs- first chance of using
my second practical lesson came down to learning how to use and how to take advantage of the i-macs that the school has.
we started off having to upload the work we had recorded in the previous lesson. we had to do more renting out from the libary but to get a connection wire this time.
we started uploading the video's which was fairly easy to do but the hard part was getting onto a peice of software on the i-mac's because we had to figure a way to convert the clips we had recorded. the software that we where using was the imovies which was extremly easy to use and get your head around. we started shortening and cutting out any parts of clips which wasnt needed and stitched the whole video together and after a good hard hours work the video was looking very nippy, worth doing and something to be proud of.
some problems that we came across though where with the talk scene which we uploaded seperatly, unfortunetly there was some sound problems with it and we all sounded like chipmunks!....
but very quickly we sorted this problem and uploaded the videos again and it worked perk. It was a lucky escape because we didnt have the time to record it all again.
so some things i have learnt from this lesson was parts like using the i-macs, using imovie and also there are not many things that cant be solved when they have gone wrong seeming the technology of the i-macs is so good.
