Media Evaluation - Question 6

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

To make our script we used a programme called Celtx this allowed us to create a script and to add all the key information which we needed and where each scene is located. This programme put the script into script format so that it is like an actually script and much easier to understand. 

Another programme which we used ins Final Cut Express we used this to edit our film and add much and effects to help make the film look good and build tension. We have learn't how to use Final Cut and through practice we now understand it much better. 

When filming our actual film we used a Panasonic HD Camcorder, this camera was a qood quality and an easy to use and understand. It was also small and wireless which meant it was heavy to carry and make the camera less shaky when filming. However the camera doesn't have manual focus which mean that sometimes we lost focus of what we were filming. Another problem which we came across was that camera was very temperamental and we lost all the filming which we had done which meant that we had to re film it all again which look a lot of time. We also used a tripod so that when we weren't filming hand held the camera wasn't shaking and stayed in the place what we wanted it to film.

Another technology which we used was a Zoom Recorder we used this to film the sound when the girl was shot as we struggled to find a realistic hit. 

The final programme which we used was blogger, this has been very effective as we are able to see what each other has done very easy. It is also very simple to use and easy to understand and doesn't require much experience.
