Question 6
- 1. Question 6: What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
- 2. Blogger When doing my pre production tasks, I had first had to create blog on the website ‘Blogger’. As I had never used this website, or even had a blog before, I had to learn how to upload all my posts from other websites such as Slide share and Prezi, which was vital in bringing all my work together.
- 3. Premier Pro Premier Pro was the program I used to edit my film on, which I was also new to using at the beginning of the course. It was very important I learnt how to use this this, so I had to practise before editing my film. I learnt how to cut and change clips, import my footage, render, add music, adjust sound clips. I also learnt to export my work once I’d finished, which I learnt had to be a specific file type to be uploaded to YouTube. There is still a lot more I need to learn on Premier pro, such as using After effects, as I only touched on some special effects in my film.
- 4. Slide Share I used slide share for my blog. It converted my word documents into a up loadable version to blogger. I had to create an account to use it, which I then uploaded my documents to it, either privately or publically, which I learnt had to be public to show up on my blog.
- 5. Prezi I used Prezi for the first time when creating my Genre Analysis. I created a mind map with different sections on my thriller research. I had to create an account for this which was free. From this I had to learn how to put it on my blog through a URL code.
- 6. Camera skills I had used a camera before hand which were similar to the camera I borrow from school for my film. I used a much better quality camera, 1100d camera making the shots very clear. I learnt how to connect a Microphone onto the camera which was new to me, which picked up the voices to make them louder as I wasn’t used to having actors speaking in video.
