Fourth podcast - Southcrest Baptist Church

Ok, so this week in the series was Southcrest University Ministry. This was pretty cool, I enjoyed getting to know a few of the guys over there and not to mention my two roommates go there. I went with just a single-camera format as Keith and I sat in his office to talk. I worked extensively in imovie and was proud of the extracted audio effect to blend video into stills while the audio still plays. I have a lot more footage of both preaching and the band but I could only have 10 min for the project. Since I shot it with the HDV camera, uploading the files to my machine took like 3 hours after formating to widescreen and letterboxing. I didn't get to put in as many stills as I usually do with projects but things worked out well. Audio worked better than last week with only a couple of skips. All in all, I'm happy with the product and believe it to be quality.

Third podcast - Indiana Ave. Baptist Church

alright well this week in my series was the University Ministry of Indiana Ave. Baptist Church. I wanted to produce an especially quality product for them because I go to Indiana Ave. This week I did a full-out video podcast with interview footage. I had several problems with editing and spent the majority of my Sunday editing. I tried the two-camera approach with a shot-reverse-shot. I put some pics at the beginning to let viewers know what the church looks like from the outside and an intro and directly into our interview. Be sure and stay tuned after the interview for some great photos of the service.

You might notice how when I talk during the interview, the audio is only on the left side. We only got one shot at this and I guess the audio only recorded on the left side. Also, due to camera problems, we had to use two very different cameras and the quality of the two shots came out different from each other. Like I said, this was done in only one take with one shot at it so I did what I could. I think it came out alright all things considered. I know there are several things I'd edit better, but overall, I'm happy with it

Second Podcast - First Baptist Church

Well this week I tried a video podcast. It took a little longer than last week and was a lot more confusing. I liked getting to know imovie. I had a great interview with Bruce, the University minister there at First Baptist. I had slight problems with pixelation...Garageband kept compressing my movie file when exporting or sharing to itunes. I have tried everything but can't figure it out.
