The Focus Pull is a camera videoing technique which allows you to change focus during a shot. This normally means by modifying the the focus from one subject over to another. The example shots below both begin focused on the cup which is foregrounded but then the focus adjusts in order to make the boy who is backgrounded in focus hence the focus of the audience is pulled towards the shallow and deep focused subjects.

Quadruple Split Screen
Split Screening is an editing camera technique which is used to give the appearance that the screen is divided up, generally in half but sometimes done even more so, which allows several simultaneous images occuring at once giving the misconception that these are in fact seamless and are running in conjunction with eachother giving a sense of realism, similar to that of the human eye. The clip below demonstrates the use of split screening as there are several clips happening at once.

Split Screen
Here is the split screen. For this video we filmed the two separate clips and put them into Premier Pro where we placed them side by side so that they matched in terms of time lapse. After this we exported it and uploaded it on Youtube.
The Green Screen in film and video techniques such as chromakey) a blue (or green) background in front of which moving subjects are filmed and which allows a separately filmed background to be added to the final image.
On this editing technique we show how we have made the background black and white and edited the folder so that it remains the actual colour the folder is. This could be a useful tool during the creation of our music video during A2 as it helps to draw the attention of the audience to the coloured object.
Final video
Here is our final video demonstrating our ability to use Premier Pro and the skills we've learned from this development. We used the first part of "I want to break free" by Queen as shown on the right and tried to replicate it as best as possible and the video below is the result.
