What have you learnt about the

technologies from the process of

constructing your product?

Due to me being a photography student, I feel

comfortable and knowledgeable around my

camera. I used my Canon EOS 600D in

widescreen film mode on auto-focus as I felt no

need to change to manual because I didn’t want

any pull focuses or any specifically focussed shots.

To get clear audio after my initial footage’s audio was noisy, I recorded

sound simultaneously as filming on my iPhone 5 after discovering that

sound quality was higher. I then uploaded the audio clips to the computer

and overlaid with footage on Adobe Premier Pro CS5.5. I’ve never tried

this before and feel I am now more confident doing this in future.

I also used my tripod during filming. I

chose one with a smooth panning ability

and spirit level bubble in order to create

level, steady shots. The panning came

in handy to follow action, for example

when Isabel moves from the table over

to the pool table.

I feel I am a lot more confident using Adobe Premier CS5.5 post-

project than I was at the start. I began to experiment with more

advanced use of the programme such as overlaying footage

with blend modes in order to create interesting and professional

effects.

Throughout editing, match-on-action shots

became easier to edit together as I

recognised fluency in my footage.

In order to manipulate colouring, I

became more confident in adding and

changing lighting and colouration effects

to footage. I added the same effect to

every shot to get uniform colouration

within my footage.

I also used the DeNoiser effect

successfully for the first time to

optimise quality and clarity of my

audio.
