Diary 27/02/13
In today lesson I start log
and capturing my VT’s from last week I filmed for my project. Firstly I start
capturing all the footage from week 4 of production week, which I filmed in Mr.
Amang’s house, and I interviewed him and his wife. However, after I finished
capturing then the tutor wanted to see all the footage I filmed and captured,
also the tutor asked me to show him all the archive I have and also to show him
how I am archiving my footage, but after I did show him my Final Cut Pro and
back up footage from the hard drive I found out that I done a big mistake about
how to log and capture and also how to archive the footage in safe place.
Moreover, after tutor sees the Final Cut Pro and check the format of the
footage, which was save in wrong setting and also wasn’t archived in correct
way of archiving, he advice me to watch a video call (How to log and capture
tape in Final Cut Pro part 1+2 by John Burns), after watching this two video
then I found out that I have done really big mistake of log and capturing and
also of archiving it in wrong format which I supposed input on HD format but I
logged and captured on SD. So therefore I had to remove all the files and
footages I logged and captured and saved on my Final Cut Pro and hard drive. After
removing all the recorded footage then with help of my tutor I corrected the
setting of capturing and also I found out how to put detail before I log and
capture by renaming the project before capturing to have it clip by clip in the
timeline from Final Cut Pro. In addition, after speaking with Peter about the
problem I was facing during capturing my footage, I found out that I was
capturing all my footage in past four weeks, but it was really good opportunity
for me to get more detail about how to log and capture in correct format by
filling all the reel detail such as naming the project, tape number and also
the project what to be called in timeline during editing. So after this problem
sorted with help of Peter it gave me more experience about Final Cut Pro, also
it will give me more chance of getting right work done in the future.
Overall, I think after my
mistake it was good opportunity to learn more about how to use Final Cut Pro,
especially when log and capturing from tape to Final Cut Pro. When filming in
HD then the setting should be set up in the following
Ø
Sequence Preset:
- HDV – 1080i50
Ø
Capture Preset:
- HDV
Ø
Device Control
Preset: - Sony HDV 1080i50 FireWire
Ø
Video Playback:
- Digital Cinema Desktop Preview – Main
Ø
Audio Playback:
- Default
After the setting match to
the recorded footage and all the Reel details are filled then start capturing
the footage in HD.
Then after all the advice and
videos I watched then I went through the process of capturing my footage in
right format and it was successful and end of the day I got the result of what I
was looking for.
