RA100 Week 2 - Editing and Computing:

Week 2 began with an introduction to computers - learning the basics of computer technology and the hardware involved in a computer build. This was definitely a highlight for me as I had been wanting to learn these things for some time.

This was followed by Audio editing - using Pro Tools, we began cutting up the 4x Audio channels (Drums, Bass, Vocals, Guitar). As these were recorded live and separately, the timing of each track would need to be altered to fit into each other. Learning the basics of Pro Tools was interesting, as I had never used this DAW before.

The final day of week 2 was an introduction to Final Cut Pro X - video production and editing software. I had never used this software before, but had heard a lot about it, so using this for the first time was definitely an eye opener.
