The document discusses the technologies used to create a film project. A HD camera, tripod, and dolly were used to film high quality footage. Editing software like Final Cut, iMovie, GarageBand, and Live Type were used to edit video, audio, colors, and add titles. Final Cut and Live Type were difficult to learn initially but became easier with use. Photoshop was used to create graphics and logos. Social media like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube were used to share and get feedback on the work.

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

2.  To film we was equipped with a HD camera which was very
useful because this meant the footage would not be to
pixilated and low quality uploading onto the Mac computer
for editing was also very easy.
 We also was equipped with a tripod which meant we had
secure shots with no unnecessary shakes which would
have made the film look unprofessional.
 Finally the last filming equipment that was used was a
dolly for cinematography techniques such as tracking, this
made the movement of the camera nice and smooth.

3.  The programs that was used to edit the film were, IMovie, Final Cut, Garage
Band and Live Type.
 Final cut was difficult at first with it being the first time we used it but once we
started using it more we became much more familiar the tools and how to use
it. We developed skills on how to edit the video, the sound and things such as
color and contrast which was very useful.
 For in IMovie this was much more easier as we had used it before for our
preliminary task, this program was very basic so we decided to only import
footage on IMovie and then drag it to final cut for the editing.

4.  For live type it was difficult like final cut
at first but then I eventually knew how to
use it successfully for example to change
the font is on the side bar
• As for the colour that was on the
left, the bar was called style
Each layer you make appears at the bottom of
the screen which was the timeline. To make
transitions effect your words you simply drag
them and put them underneath the section.

5.  For garage band it was much more difficult to use
compared to the other programs that was used, the
reason being was that there was so many different
types of sounds and instruments to choose from, how
ever it was very similar to the layout of final cut.

6.  To make the black tiger logo we used
Photoshop, this was a good program as
you can easily manipulate the images to
making it fit for your standards.

7.  To do this we used some social network sites
such as Facebook and twitter, it was an easy
way to do it as people would easily be able to
view and share your work to widen your
horizon of feed back. YouTube was also used.

8. Firstly as a group we discussed various ideas that we could use as
our opening sequence for a thriller. Once we had finished talking
this through and analyzing each option, we created a shot by shot
story board and Animatics. We then edited this on IMovie and
then put it on our group blog we then recorded some audience
feedback of what they thought would be in a conventional thriller
movie, we then used some of there key information's and used it
towards our thriller, this also went onto our group blog, after this
we then recorded actors in the film.
Using IMovie and Final Cut we edited the whole movie on its own,
each member of the group had there tasks to do so while the film
was being edited someone was on garage band making the
soundtrack that would have been similar to conventional thriller
films. Also another person was creating the titles on live type.
After everything we done we then put everything together on
final cut.
After this we then had a final audience feedback in order to tweak
out film
