What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

During the process of creating our production, we have learnt to use many different technologies such as…

After shooting a scene, you can drag clips to the timeline to order your sequence. This timeline allowed me to watch and create our production in any order. Throughout our production, we didn’t explicitly use the order of scenes within our storyboard, and this application allows you to change the sequence of your shots.

The timeline comes in two different formats, one which allows a time scale view, and one which allows the producer to see the titles and transitions

applied to certain scenes.

The sound tool allows you to watch your production with/without your music and voice-over. This helped us to hear any unwanted sound created while filming.

Camera Equipment

Although being taught the basics of using a camera, we did encounter a few difficulties of setting up the tripod. However, we learnt many skills such as,

tuning light and using tracks.

Altering the tripod’s height came to a great advantage as many scenes required eye level shots.

we were capable to learn and adjust to certain camera functions, however this took some time. After learning many skills we were able to produce a range of different shots and angles. Such as close-up shot and low angle.

Selecting a soundtrack

The website http://www.freeplaymusic.com/ we used to find a soundtrack was very helpful. However, it was very difficult narrowing our soundtrack selection as there were many choices to choose from. We could select a certain ‘style’ of music or a feel. We chose moody/gloomy as it was the atmosphere we wanted to create.

After selecting a certain ‘feel’ or ‘style’ of music, the website loads different types of music that fits into the category you chose. This website was extremely easy to use, however very time consuming as the various amounts of music available was countless. Our audience research required a great amount of time selecting the perfect piece of music to effectively create tension.

You can then preview a track, which you can also download.

Slide ShareUsing different websites to present research is vital. Slide share allows you to upload

power points onto your blog. This is extremely practical and useful for reading and sharing information onto your blog with the rest of your production team.

I used slide share to present my production research. This device made it easier for me to present my work, and allowed me to add pictures and annotate screen shots of opening sequences.
