Skills on final cut pro

Today while rendering my parity sequence i have learnt how to use several new affects in order to overcome obstacles involved in the remake of the sequence i made with my group (see group blog) these include:

- The use of the 'cut'/'razor' tool in order to achieve a short sharp cut of scenes which was very helpful while i tried to achieve a similar affect to the flashback affect used in 'Parity'.
- The use of effects tab, Filters/Perspective, apply Flop which was used to flip a shot of me mopping the floor (it broke continuity as i approached from the right side and then a close up shot showed me mopping on the left of the blood stain which broke continuity and made the sequence quality suffer with this effect i was able to reverse the shot and make it look like i was mopping from the left.
- The use of the slow motion of a clip to gain a better view of when to stop and start a clip and when to cut part of the clip that was a better take of a clip or a nicer angle of shot etc.
