Look at a real example
In this lesson, you edit a scene called "Fireworks Display". If nothing else, you can use the frame numbers as a guide and simply copy one of the edits on this disk.

Then you must put your edit of the scene on a disk and send it to me. This way, I know if you understood the visual instructions on the disk.

Disk from Star Movie Shop

 * You need "Fireworks Display"
 * By now, you know how to get disks for these lessons (by completing the previous lessons and asking me for a copy of the next disk.)


 * To get the disk, email me and tell me what you are ready for this lesson. @undefined.  [[Image:Crystal Clear app xfmail.png|32px]]


 * Fireworks Display works with most editing programs (including DV editing programs.) You might need QuickTime Pro to convert the footage to the correct format for your editing program.
