1. What have you learnt about
technologies from the process of
constructing this product?
Whilst creating my opening sequence I had to use
many different technologies, unlike the obvious
things such as my computer, Microsoft word and
power point I gradually learnt how to use many
others for example; Photoshop, Blogger, Prezi and
Slide-share.

2. Blogger
Before I started this project I had never used blogger or any blog in fact, so
when I had to constantly blog I became used to it very quickly. The blogger
website we used allowed our group to post anything using the appropriate
tags (post-production, pre-production and everything in-between). We
would also have to tag our name in each post we made so that you could
clearly see who created what work. It became very organised as the
project went on as we could see who had done what and what needed to
be done. Once all the posts were posted we could edit each others and
also add more detail if necessary.

3. Final Cut Pro
After we had shot all the clips needed for our
opening sequence we uploaded them to
'Final Cut Pro and edited the video to what
it is now. Final cut pro was completely new
to me and I had trouble at the start using it
but once I got the hang of it I found it easy
to use. This software allows you to edit the
screen size of your video, change the
lighting, add music and cut along with
many more. Although I had never used this
software I would be able to go back alone
and use it without difficulty.

4. Photoshop
Before starting this project I had previously used Photoshop in my other
subjects so had a rough idea of how it worked. I used Photoshop to create
posts for the blog and to create our groups logo. You just upload the image
you need to edit and there is really anything you can do to it.
This space is where the image would
appear that you are editing.
This is to navigate around
the image and the
different information
about it.
This is the history of the
image you are editing.
These are the different
layers you have on the
image.

5. Prezi,Slide-share
To use such websites like Prezi and Slide-share you first have to create an
account. These websites are specifically for sharing presentations online in a
more exciting way, and because they are really easy to use I then chose them
when creating posts. With Slide-share you create a Power-point presentation
first and then upload it on to their website and you can edit it whenever.
Another helpful thing I learned when using these websites was that you can
come back to them at any time and continue to work on them. Just like the
Blogs you can share your work with your group and teach each other
different techniques with them.
