Week 4: The Progression

This week my group has been busier than bees (for sure as bees never met technology right?) putting together our ideas into videos. It has been a difficult task especially because we had never really explored this side of technology that much. Though some us had some video editing experience, it was merely for fun. When it comes as an assignment, it sounds much more complicated.
I made a mistake by using the most basic programme available; The Windows Movie Maker. I realized it does not only lacks choices but also functions. However, I came to know of this only as I was almost finishing my video project in the latter. As I consulted Miss Ng and Mr Fairuz my friends I realized that I would do us much good if we changed the programme we used. They suggested Ulead and Power Director.
Thus, we started haunting Digital Mall and upon finding Power Director, I seeked th guidance of those who are pro in using this software. Its a shame we had to start over but at least we now know of the difference between those two softwares. It did take some time for me to explore and learn how to use this software for my project but in the end I manage to redo my entire project and sigh with relief as it is definitely better than the previous one. Moral of the story: Consult the professional before starting a project!
