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



As I did not do Media Studies last year at GCSE level, this year constructing my A Level opening sequence I learnt about all the different technologies available.When filming shots for the sequence we had to use the brand new cameras which I had not used before, and I think that I managed to use them effectively to get a great range of different shots. Once it came to the editing part of the product, it gave me a chance to use the Imovie program for the very first time, I also learnt how to import sounds which was crucial for adding the music to our thriller.
The camera is what we used to construct all the different shots to make our thriller film, and to create really effective shots we used a tripod. For the tracking shot across the character's bed we used the tripod to guarantee that it was effective when it was converyed to the audience.
The next logo to to the right of the image of the camera is the logo for the programme LiveType. This cna be used to add titles to your piece of work, giving it a more professional look. When making our thriller films we decided not to use this porgramme and instead use the Imovie software to create titles. However I do still know how to use this software and before the end of the year in Media I will probably end up using this effectively.
The orange logo at the bottom left of the contact sheet is Blogger, this is the website where we all made blogs to portray all the work we have completed. This is vital for the course.
The Imovie logo is the last one and most probably the most important. This is the software that we used to ake our thriller film. We used this software to add in the titles of the jobs and roles and then edited the film to make sure it had it's own spin on it, and make it attract our target audience as easily as possible.
