Editing Practice - September 2020.

    This task was just to refresh us on using editing programmes as many of us had not done so throughout the time we were off school. I had been using premiere pro for multiple things throughout the lockdown period for many off subject things that I enjoy doing so I was not out of practice. 

    I decided to practice editing with protest music as this is our brief for this years NEA. I chose Marvin Gaye's "What's going on" from the album of the same now. This is one of my favourite albums and is somewhat of a masterpiece considering the technology of the era.

    I used a lot of opacity editing, fading in shots of Gaye performing the song live with shots of worn down areas which have been graffitied and ruined.
