Students will use Premiere Pro (and provided video, audio and photos) to recreate the 25-second introduction to a fictitious documentary called "Baseball: America's Pasttime."
In
doing so, students will demonstrate their learning of the program
interface, importing collateral, using photos, layers, timeline,
transitions, effects, editing clips before and after insertion to the
timeline, titling, the Ken Burns effect, and exporting to various video
formats (in this case, a format suitable for YouTube.)
They will upload their videos to YouTube and embed them in their blogs with additional prose commentary on the process.
Here is the sample video I hastily edited:
Some of the tasks I completed while making this clip:
- cutting a video clip into two segments
- dropping in a music clip for background
- shortening a music clip
- "fading out" a music clip
- adding title
- adding photos and resizing photos for frame
- fading in - and out - title
- fading in photos
- cross-fading between photos
- "Ken Burns" Effect - rough cut - on still photos
- fading video to black
- and more...
Adobe has some helpful links to instructions and video tutorials to help you get started HERE.
A good YouTube tutorial of the "Ken Burns Effect"
(In follow-up projects, students will create a sample of camera shots, and a brief tutorial on tips to make video better.)
