I really enjoyed the Premiere Induction as we were given a walkthrough of the programme, then a task to apply and time to have a play around on our own. I have used premiere before, not for animation but I had to create a 5 minute film for A Level film studies, so it wasn't as foreign to me. The only thing that was foreign was dabbling with audio, because I have edited live action footage, but only ever added a audio clips, not editing individual ones and changing the pitch/tone.
We were given a few pieces of footage and some audio and were told to use them and create a video illustrating that we could put them together and use some effects. This is what I came out with:
I really liked the fire clips as opposed to the space, time lapse ones, so I imported them to the programme and tried to create the effect of a zoom, but with a fade in and a fade out. I then reversed the clip, just to see what it would look like, and left it in because I thought it was effective. I also changed the saturation of the images in the last part of the video, just to see how it would apply as i've ever only turned video to black and white on this programme.
As for audio, I used the alarm type sounds, but changed the pitch and 'speed' of them. That is why some of them sound deeper and the last one has a longer duration, at least a little bit longer as the clips themselves are quite short anyway. Even though it wasn't much, it allowed me to experiment with the settings without too much pressure, and get familiar with the different areas of the programme.
I wish I could have dabbled with speeding up actual clips and slowing them down, because I think these would be very useful actions to apply in the future, but since you do it the same way as you would sound, at least I know how to go about it for next time!
