Intro Screens


After retrieving the files for the intro screens after having problems with the font attached to the email, i have created my screens. The first being the universal one that all of use use and the second being the question that we were issued. I did have problems with these at first because i forgot to flatten the PSD before saving. This meant that when i imported the file into FCP the color overlay that was on the logo was not seen and we saw the original colours of the logo therefor i went back and flattened the document then re inported it which ment it came out as you see it above.

Solution To Cutaways

After the problems that we have had this week over the cutaways this week there has been a number of suggestions on how we are going to know who is using what over the holidays so the were two ideas proposed. The first that we all put screen grabs on the surver and create a contact sheet and see how many people are using the same clip. That only worked to a certain degree because not everyone was in class. Then the second plan was to create a blog where we can post the screen grabs over the holiday and dodge using each others cutaways.
