Advantages and disadvantages in using Sony Vegas

In this blog post I will be discussing and highlighting the advantages and disadvantages in the editing software (Sony Vegas) that we have been using for editing and producing our music video.

Advantages:

  • VEGAS Pro has all the features professional editors need to create their video projects. Tools like chroma key, white balance, image stabilization, stereoscopic 3D editing, multicam editing and masking. 
  • Vegas has built-in interactive tutorials that show you how many of the tools work which will aid new editors and creators.
  • A unique tool in this software is the VEGAS Pro Connect iPad app. The purpose of this app allows you to perform basic desktop functions on your tablet. You can control playback, drop markers and collaborate with other editors who also have the app.
  • Finally the professional video editor also features such as intelligent upscaling; which means that you can take your regular HD footage and upscale it to 4K resolution (which is a much higher resolution). This is great because it allows you to work with footage that may be older with clips filmed with the newest ultra-high-resolution cameras.

Disadvantages:
  • If you’re a new editor, it may take you a while to get the hang of all the tools VEGAS Pro has to offer.
  • One of the major downfalls for this program is that it is only compatible with Windows, this is bad news for the large population who use Mac computers and Linux.
  • Requires a massive storage space which is, 5 GB.
  • Much more Expensive than the others

However as our school is supplied with Sony Vegas already built-in the computers I do not need to worry or think about the expenses but also I can access this program easily in school and on my free lessons and confidently follow tutorials on the software and YouTube.

Mind Map of 1970's America

Image
The purpose of this post is to highlight the history and events of America in the 1970's; the implementation in the creation of this mind map help our group visualise the struggle and events that impacted peoples lives and how it altered the politics and society of the time period. As a result of this creation, the mind map helps my group to easily understand more about this time period which may also offer us more inspiration due to the time period from this information. Categorising points such as the image below truly paints a vivid picture and creates a widening of understanding to the construction and building of references to the societal culture. If we plan and construct a mind map of focus and widening of ideas can easily be condensed and understand the reasoning behind many factors of our music video such as costume and characters etc.

Hyperdermic Needle Theory

Image
The theory states that an intended message is directly received and wholly accepted by the receiver. The model was originally rooted in 1930's behaviourism. The Hypodermic  Theory  suggests that viewers of media content are a passive audience who are powerless to resist the impact of the messages inside the media source. Thus that they do not have any influence on the messages coming out of these media sources; this is a lot like Action Theory, in the way that messages are portrayed and noted by the receiver  of media. In a way it gets injected into audiences, hence why it is called the  hypodermic  needle model. An example of a huge event supporting this model is from the year 1938 whereby people believed there was an alien invasion because the radio version of H.G. Wells "War of the World" was broadcasted across the world. As a result of this , it caused mass panics and anxiety as an estimated 1 million US citizens to believe an invasion was in fact underway.The nation
