This lesson I have finally finished the video. I am planning to add some finishing touches to it to make it perfect. I am quite satisfied with this video presentation I have created but also partly disappointed because I know I could have done a much better job. This was because I think it was a bit rushed as I didn't use my time well and rushed it near the end. In the final video I have already added all the software I used to create the presentation such as Sony Vegas, Prezi and also Adobe Soundbooth. After I finished it I had to render the video into a Mpeg2 file as an AVI file would be much too big. Then after that I am now using Adobe Media Encoder to convert the MPEG2 file into a flv file that then can be put into our adobe portfolio. The key part of my video would be the audio and not the visuals as most of the video's are screen grabs from camstudio on creating the poster.
Through out this project I have learnt how to use Sony Vegas Pro 9 quite well. There were times when I couldn't do it at school but at home I managed to download Vegas Pro 9 trial and also Camstudio trial. I was also able to find the trials for Adobe Indesign and Xara extreme but they were all newer versions of the software and looked different. I found out that although they may be more updated than the older versions but they actually function quite similarly.
After doing this project I have learnt quite a lot about using a whole range of different softwares. I have especially learnt a lot on using video editing software and that would help me greatly in the future. Right now I am already getting many pieces of work to do with video editing and the new knowledge I learned about video editing software would benefit me greatly. Next time I would use the green screen more as this time I was rushing a bit and that did not allow me to have enough time to do it

4th October 2010
Today is almost to the due date of the presentation. At home I have already recorded all my voice pieces and now all that remains is to use cam studio to record my prezis. I Even though I found out I had quite a long script I shortened part of it and now the whole audio track is complete. I used Adobe soundforge as it can easily clear out unnecessary sounds from the audio clip. One problem I found was that when I recorded it I was too near the microphone which made the db go over and the sound not clear when I play it. I solved the problem through adobe by reducing the volume of the recording. Sound forge is the program that allows me to anything with an audio file and touch it up to perfection.
