History of WW2 - Final Draft

I have now completed my final draft of the history video.


The last few changes that had to be made were slowing the pace down in the D Day section, as well as making further adjustments to the video overlays. They were found to be a little distracting, and some of them didn't even fit in properly; I took them out as a result and instead created a simple film grain effect that isn't too overpowering, but still gives off the aged feel that I was going for.

I created the layer of grain by altering my black and white adjustment layer that I used to make the entire video monochrome. I used a Noise and Gain effect to add onto the layer, which affected the whole video. The initial amount of grain that you see was too much, so I turned it down to the level that is now seen within the video. 

With regard to the syncing issue, I moved back all of the audio by about 5 frames, once I exported the timeline XML file to an earlier version of Premiere Pro used in the Mac Labs, and this managed to sort out the sync once exported. 

The video is now fully in sync with the audio, and the sequence settings are as they should be, as my laptop did not have the correct settings installed and there was no way of installing them myself.
