Below the Browser and Viewer is the Timeline, where I assembled the video and audio clips into a sequence to create my teaser. On
the upper far right is the Canvas, which will played whatever sequence of clips is was in my Timeline. You can click on and drag
video and audio clips from the Viewer (or the Browser) into the Timeline. The Timeline displays the video tracks in blue and audio
tracks in green. Therefore, I dragged all the logged and captured footage into the timeline where I then rearranged the clips into the
right order, cut the clips where needed to by using the razor tool in the toolbar on the right of the timeline. Once I had arranged all
the footage in order and had edited it, I then dragged the audio soundtrack for the teaser onto the timeline which I then cropped to
the length of the teaser video, and then added a fade out at the end. The last stage of my editing was inserting the voice-over onto
the timeline which was recorded on the video camera. As the voice-over was filmed, I disabled the video as shown on the top left
so that only the audio can be heard. As this was the final product, I then converted the file to an .mov file. There were other tasks I
performed on Final Cut Pro such as inserting markers for more precise editing, adjusted the audio level of a clip, created multiple
audio levels by adding key frames which I used to emphasise vital dialogue and to fade out the soundtrack of the teaser.
