technology question 6
- 1. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product? By Charlotte Whitfield
- 2. Technology • Through this Project I have used a variety of different technology both for this evaluation and for filming. I have never really used anything like IMovie on this scale before and I have never made a Blog either which was actually easier than expected. • For Filming I used the Sony HandyCam. If I was making a Block buster then this was not the best quality camera to use but it fit well with the gritty realism feel. The Pod cast was surprisingly easy to use, I never used it in the end for my film but by playing around with it I can now use it freely if I make another project like this again and can be very useful in trailer work. I noticed that I had to make my voice much clearer as I sometimes stop in the middle of a sentence to think and often mix up my words and stutter so I had to redo my pod cast a few times just to make it perfect. I didn’t use the tripod because I had to make sure to have high and low angles and this would have slowed me down, looking back I wish for some clips I had used a tripod because the steadiness of the camera looked too amateur to show. Thankfully when I used IMovie it changed my opening from just an ordinary beach camera shot with freezing cold shaky hands to a steady moving picture. Once the film was completed I had to upload it onto YouTube but I did have problems with the saving situation. Through 10 minutes of resaving it I eventually got my film published on YouTube.
- 3. The Sony HandyCam Was easy to use and great for on the move shots but has a low quality for filming however this fits into the Gritty realism Category.
