Evaluation: Question 6

WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNT ABOUT TECHNOLOGIES FROM THE PROCESS OF CONSTRUCTING THIS PRODUCT?

Mac

We used the mac in order to do everything regarding our project. We used it to research, editing and store our final project. 

From using a Mac I found it very annoying as its more advanced than a standard computer. However, it was very fun to use and has a range of different programs which are ideal for editing and music.

Camera

We used a Canon E05 in order to shoot all our work. We also used it to take a few pictures of us on the set of scenes. All in all this was the main part of our project.  

I learnt how to fully control and use this camera successfully and really enjoyed using it.

Tripod

We used a tripod in order to keep the camera steady for example with a panning shot. We did not always use the tripod but it was always around when we was shooting just in case.

I did not really like using the tripod as it was hard to close and open which was very irritating.

Pag lights

We used pag lights to hel[p with lighting. they had different filters aswell so we were able to create different effects for the surroundings. This came in handy when we did our front room scene in the house as it added to the idea of the TV being on.

The pag lights were interesting to use and were aw piece of equipment I've never used before or seen up close.

Blogger

Blogger was used throughout my whole project in order to update our blogs with what we have done in our group.

I found using blogger really fun and enjoyed creating my blog as it was a really cool and simple way to archive your work.

YouTube

Our group used YouTube to help us research other films like our own by looking at opening scenes credits.

Im used to using YouTube but discovered how to embed videos into blogger.

Google

Google was our primary source for research as we used it to find out information about other films similar to ours and to find our genre convetions.

iMovie

iMovie was used to edit our film. We used it to edit and upload our footage regularly. 

I enjoyed using iMovie and found it an easy way to edit footage. 

dafont

We used a site called dafont.com to find fonts for our film credits.As our film is a TeenRomCom we wanted something that would reflect that and appeal to our audience.

I've used dafont.com before and found it really helpful when finding fonts to use for our film.
