Screen grab - Creating our split screen

Throughout the editing we took several screen grabs to represent different stages of the editing process. Thus screen shot shows how we created our split screens. First we over-lapped the images we wanted to appear on the split screen, layering them in clips in order of viewing. We then clicked on the images individually and rearranged them around the space to form separate boxes. To create the white lines we used two different techniques depending on the flexibility of the clips. The first method involved applying a white slug underneath the footage to allow the black gas to be white. If we could not form even gaps between the clips we had to import white lines into Final cut using Photoshop. We found that both methods were effective, although we found applying the slug a quicker method. Despite this we were able to achieve very accurate lines using photoshop as appose to using the slug which was very difficult to line up sucessfully.
