AV News 191 - February 2013
Our seventh and final AV was by Neil Pilkington and was based around rock
concerts. Bernard and Keith admitted the author did very well to get the variation
of images, and it was well put together. They said that an image should fill the
whole screen rather than half of it, and several images showed various guitarists
but the end on the guitar had been cropped. They liked the way black and white
images had been used and it made them stand out, and was more effective than
if they were in colour. The gritty effect also added some feel to the sequences,
and the change of tempo in the music was a good contrast between the rock
guitars and softer guitar images.
The final scores were as follows:

constructive comments and thoughts, and advice freely given to enable our
members to further improve their AV techniques.
After the scores were announced we were treated to seeing a selection of
their work, and we learned much about what can be achieved with ideas, time,
and good use of software to create superb AV presentations
