damn silhouettes...

In total annoyance, the footage of Ross, George, and Kirsty was partly filmed length ways to get fit their whole bodys in a portrait position, but once uploaded it meant that they were flipped 270 degrees so they are standing on the left side of the screen :(

so that meant only parts where they were upright could be used. Trying to find a silhouette effect wasnt easy and we are still not totally convinced with what we've chosen. An effect called "edges" on i-movie whereby the outlines of a chosen subject glows and everything else is blackout. It worked in the way that their mouths are obscured )because they werent singing the correct lyrics) but doesnt look brilliant.
So we probably will be doing this again and hopefully get an actualy silhouette by placing the light behind their faces or creating shadows. We need clear wall, a dark room and a big light! (and help from George Ross and kirsty :P)
