Evaluation Question 6: What Have I learned about Technologies From the process of constructing this product.

Adobe:

Adobe premiere is new to me as i have never used it or knew that you could use it to edit your films like other softwares. This is the first time i have ever used it because i have never used in it GSCE level work. I think adobe premiere is one of the best editing programmes because its easy to use. I would use adobe more often because its simpler to windows live movie maker.

After Effets:

I used the new software technology named adobe after effects which was really helpful for my thriller opening. We had done a footage of the 2 men meeting from far rang i had taken a simple long shoot to make it look like it a CCTV footage. To make it look like a CCTV footage i uploaded the footage on to after effects and then i added manny timecodes and filters. I looked at a youtube tutorial as this was the first time i used the software. It took a while to find a person on youtube who done it step by step and pausing at the same time made it useful so it made it easier to accomplish. I think that adobe after affects has given me a new trait even though i'm not use to it.

PhotoShop:

Photoshop was used when we was creating our ident. i learned this by waching claire who was colour editing a image and even scale and add test to it. This is not new technology to as i have used it before but i never knew how to use it properly.

iMovie

We used iMovie when we was editing our preliminary task. I that iMovie was harder to use than other softwares. It was hard to export it but i found it easy to edit it. I would use other editing softwares but i feel that i have gained a new skill.

Blogger:

I had never known about blogger but at the start of the course i was introduce to it and found out how its like. Its simple to use and i like the way it displays my work and progress. I think it has a great ability to allow you to put images, videos and powerpoints and others. I have used blogger to display my progress and coursework.

Google:

I have definitely used google to make my coursework. i used google many times to see specific setting and also answer my question. If i did not use google or if google was never here then i would know as much.

Youtube:

Youtube is second nature to me. I have used youtube to show my work for feedback and watch other peoples videos for ideas. I uploaded the rough cut video of our thriller opening so our peer the target audience could view it so we could get feedback on how to improve. I also used youtube to watch past students thriller opening. Its was also very helpful for me because i then learned how to make title sequences and how to use adobe after effects. Youtube has been very useful for the construction for my thriller opening.

Slideshare:

I have learned how to use slideshare as its helped me present my analysis and work. Slideshare has let me upload powerpoint presentation on to my blog.

Digital Camera and Tripod:

I had used this to definitely film my thrillers opening scenes. The Camera that we had used was simple not complicated.

Skills:

By using all these different technologies i think i have acquired many skills. I'm now able to display my pieces, edit pieces together and improve them.the construction of my work wouldn't be possibly if the technologies was not there.

Clip on Microphone:

I had never used or heard of this before. Its a small device that picks up better sound quality from the actor while clipped on to the actor. This piece of technology was used in my preliminary task. I could say that this was a new technology to me. If you use this in one of you work you can tell the difference.
