Editing Using Premiere Pro




The task we were given was to create a piece of video using adobe premier pro, with a set of videos and a set song. The videos we were given were of a water sport called fly boarding and the song was 'oops upside your head' by the Gap Band. To start I opened all the videos and played each one to decide what order I wanted them in, I knew that I wanted my opening shot to be an establishing shot so it showed the audience the concept and environment of the video but before I did this I synced the video to the audio so the video appeared when the fist beat of the audio started, this gave it a well thought out introduction for the audience. I wanted a title in my video as well so it made it clear what the video was about, I thought if the title just jump cutted in and out it would look blocky and unpolished.

Roland Barthes - Semiotics

Roland Barthes - Semiotics Semiotics is  the study of signs and symbols and their use or interpretation.  A sign refers to something that  conveys  meaning , any image, word or sound e.g. when we see a  traffic  light go red we know it means  stop ,without it actually saying stop.  A sign is made up of the signifier and the signified; the signifier is the 'thing' you are reading (e.g. red traffic light) , the signified is the meaning of the  signifier (e.g. red traffic light means stop).  Denotation is the literal meaning of the sign (identifying/describing the sign) and c onnotation is the metal association we think of with the sign.  Barthes identified that there were five codes of semiotics:  Hermeneutic code is if the text is mysterious/unexplained, making the reader question it, p roairetic code is when text builds suspense ,through anticipation of an action, s emantic code refer to a sign that has...
