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

 

We have taken two pictures of our group with the equipment. Here in these two pictures you can see that we have included the tripod and the camera.
Note
In our film we have minimal props to display the isolation of my character in contrast to Zoe's. This is the same for minimal dialogue and the music usage is the same throughout.

These two pieces of paper contain a symbolisation of certain frames which we were going to include but didn't as a form of a premonition. However we did contain shots which Incorporated these papers on an easel which Hannah was drawing on.They were especially handy when it came to setting the pervading atmosphere of the film. We used charcoal pencils to give a rough sketchy feel to the image as though it was done hurriedly.



This was used to film our opening sequence-the sleeping scene

Camera and Tripod

 These were the most significant types of equipment for our film due to being our predominant aid to complete our final project in the basic stages. The camera aided the primary footage( actually capturing the footage) whereas the Tripod( which we only used in later stages) was used to steady the camera in appropriation to which frames we wanted still.

We learnt how to:

• film
• upload footage 
•  adjust the camera setting,e.g colour
• transitioning camera to  tripod allowing the unrestricted freedom of movements between the shots as well as increasing fluidity of the final piece

Camera/Tripod bags

This is to carry our equipment in to ensure that the property does not get damaged or lost

YouTube

Youtube was extremely fundamental because it  proved beneficial software for showing our film. This is because it was easily accessible by anyone as well as being simple to function.Another positive of using Youtube is the oppurtunity it allows to share films with other youtube veiwers/members/family/friends which makes it easier to recieve feedback.

We have discovered the following

• learnt how to create and maintain a YouTube account
•  how to upload and publish the videos we made.
• the addition of the process of adding speech bubbles/annotations

Blogger
We  used Blogger as a form of an online diary. Here we completed our blogger tasks split into 5 sections: Preliminary task( starting out), Research and planning, filming,Editing and evaluation, which we grouped together to give the examiner a clear view as to where everything is. I  have also discovered that Blogger is an extremely effective website as it is easy to use as well as being able to export pictures/videos fairly simply. Conclusively I have found out many differential methods to use when constructing, researching and planning a film.

 From using Blogger we have learnt the following:

• How to provide a detailed analysis of our constructions of all the media element in regards to the context within our film e.g camera composition
• to accurately write a 'diary' which talks in depth about what we have done in this particular moment

Adobe premier 


By using Adobe Premier  it has made the footage look effective due to the variation of effects/transitions/frames/sequencings ect available
We have learnt the following:

•  to perform a variating mixture of basic and complex editing which I had no prior knowledge of beforehand and is a skill which can be used consistently
• how the enablement of sound and video can be layered and blended 
•  how to perform transitions and effect to improve the quality of what we filmed.

Paint

•  used the Crop option in paint to modify the particular screen grabs to the correct size.

                                                

  

                                                        Google maps






We used google maps to give a birds eye  of Therfields school field



The numbers was a very important website  for my research and planning where I derived my horror statistics from. 

Google search engine

• primarily used to find out website engines which relate to media conventions
