The Bait Tutorial introduced us to the programme 'Final Cut Pro'. Final Cut Pro is s programme that allows us to edit through clips of video, enabling us to use various shots in our thrillers, this is important in a film as we as the audience feel comfortable watching aswell us showing us relevant information to creat the emotions and atmospheres our thrillers intend to. The Timeline is where media can be cut together into a sequence, therfore we see various shots, all of which come together accuratley. For e.g. a match cut can be shown of someones hand reaching for food, but then of the subjects mouth. The Canvas is where the edited production in the timeline can be viewed, this is helpful in showing and repeating our clip so we can continuously make changes and edit to produce a successful piece. Extract from clips are indicated by pressing 'I' at the start of the clip and 'O' at the end, abbreviating 'in' and 'out'. These rushes are simply dragged down to the timeline and edited further. The positions and sizes of these windows can be changed, but by default the Browser is positioned at top left, with the Viewer and Canvas to its right, in that order, and the Timeline below. There is also a small Toolbox window and two audio-level indicators for the left and right audio channels. Some eg of tools the Final Pro Cut programme has is the Razor Blade Tool, which enables us to cut anywhere within the clip. We can also apply a dissolve shot by simply pressing 'command' and 'T' whilst the line is where we want it in the clip.
