What have you learnt about technologies from the
process of constructing this product?
In
pre-production of the film I used Microsoft Word and PowerPoint to do research
in to the genre of film we are going to do (Crime drama, Psychological
thriller, Detective). For the preliminary task we used a Panasonic camera to
film, which came in handy as we learnt how to use the camera, so when it came to
filming the whole two minutes we knew how to use it properly.
In
the production of the film we had two Panasonic cameras; one being a prop and
another to record. We did not run in to any problems whilst filming, so using
the cameras were successful.
In
post-production we used Adobe Premier Pro. This is the best software to edit
available on college computers; we had previous experience of editing using
Adobe Premier Pro when filming the preliminary exercise, although it was
difficult to match the correct sound to the correct shot we eventually fixed
the problem. We also used a voice over on many shots; to do this we used a
voice recorder called ZOOM H1; it was straight forward to use. This was a
decision of ours, as originally we planned to record a wall and just talk to
the camera. Using ZOOM made the quality far better, which made the use of this
technology a success.
At the end of the film we got a piece of music to create a sense of atmosphere, it was called 'Chinease Dog.' We got this from http://freemusicarchive.org/ so there isn't any copyright issues.
