The countdown begins ...

With just over a week to go until we have to hand this 10 second movie in, I guess it is time I started to actually work at it!

I filmed the footage when I went to Winsford to visit my son. Sticking with the idea of fading an image in or out of the frame, I filmed him sat on the sofa playing my DS, walking down the stairs, and running into my auntie's house. Also, I filmed each background without him on it.

There was a slight problem when it came to retrieving the footage, though. Our camera uses USB, not firewire, and seemingly the USB port on the camera itself is busted. So, I had to go to University and book one of the Uni cameras in order to get the footage off the tape! Then, I copied it to my flash drive, and carried it home. Where I shall edit it in Premiere, and then use After Effects for the fade trick.

So far, so ... not quite perfect, but still pretty good.
