Editing - Running clip



In order for the scene of the couple running to be how I wanted it to be, I needed to edit it to make it slower, crop it and turn it into black and white.  I did this all in premiere pro.
Black and White

  • When turning the clip into black and white, I selected the clip itself and went into editing effects..  I then searched 'tint'.  Applying this to the clip will automatically make it black and white.  
Speed

  • When it came to speeding the clip up, I again selected the clip and then right clicked.  Here there was a selection all duration/time.  When going into this the speed could be lowered or increased, which is how I slowed the clip down.
Frame size 

  • The first thing I did when altering the frame size was, i went into the library of clips and at the bottom to the right are some keys.  I right clicked on these and went to the option which said adjustment layer.  This added an adjustment layer to the library.  By using adjustment layers it means that alters to the clip can be made, without effecting the clip itself. 
  • Once the adjustment layer was made, I dragged it on top of the clip.  At this point, the size of the adjustment layer was too big for the size of the clip.  Therefore, the first thing I did when importing the adjustment layer was cut it down to size.  I did this by marking the adjustment layer with the cutting tool.  This meant that the two clips would sit on top of each other.  
  • After cutting the adjustment layer down to size, It was time to edit the clip.  I searched for the crop tool and pulled it onto the adjustment layer.  I then altered the size of the right and left size of the frame.  This made the ratio of the frame size change.  
This was an effect which I used on many of my clips to alter the presentation of it.  I also think that the frame sizes target different areas of the couples life.
