Evaluation - Question Six

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

Through out the whole of the task we were set we have used many filming, editing and other forms of technology to help form our final piece. We also learnt about the equipment e.g. camera, condenser microphones, whilst using the equipment.  We learn there were rules about the camera angles and where the camera could go. Using different shots to portray the image and feel we wanted for the scene, we used a variety of camera techniques. After shooting, we then took the footage into the ‘Mac rooms’ and uploaded it. We edited it in ‘iMovie’, a program used for editing video and motion pictures. This program lets you edit basically, e.g. simple cuts and transitions. If we were to edit this again I would prefer to use ‘final cut’ as it has more variety and more of a ‘creative wing span’ to develop and perfect our footage in. Finally, as I created the music, I used ‘Garageband’ to compose, play and record our sound track into. This program I found easy to use and simple too. Yet, if I was more familiar with ‘Logic 9’ I would of used this program as this program is far more advance. It also has better VST plug-ins that are a lot better quality and the overall mix would have been more professional sounding.
