Week 7 DVD Trailer

Now i have some knowledge of how to use the Adobe premiere it was time to start off filming for my DVD trailer. I decided to make a dish that is cooked for hours in the slow cooker. It is very simple and easy to make and I wanted to involve some of the steps involved in making it, to show the viewer how easy it is to eat healthily. I know this is opposed to the trailers of home cooking from well-known chefs. They  tend to just talk about it and stand behind a kitchen and don't actually show you what they'll be showing you.
However, after filming several clips and taking some photos of the process, I realized that this one dish took up longer than the 1 minute that I had to work with. This is a severe problem for me as I intended on showing multiple dishes with some stages involved. 19/03/2015.

I decided to first tackle the problem of getting this video down to 1 minute in Adobe premiere, so I created a new project and imported all of the images and clips I needed and neatly arranged them in "Bin" folders to stay organized. I then created a new sequence using file, new sequence as opposed to just dropping a clip in to the sequence bar to create a default sequence. The reason for this is so I could select the widescreen format the assignment requires me to create, I chose "Pal 32Khz WideScreen". I chose this format because I didn't need the higher audio quality as I plan on just using a free-to-use audio clip and use text to display bits of information about the cooking process.










I then began to edit parts of the clips I had filmed to make parts shorter, I used the mark in, mark out function to do this and then inserted these sections in to the main sequence. Of course I did these one by one from start to finish to create the order of how I wanted the sequence to be. I also used three images in this process because it wasn't necessary to film and would save me time to achieve my 1 minute trailer. After I had to edited them all in order I muted the audio track so you couldn't hear any background noise. 21/03/2015
