A normal digital camera was used to take all of my test shots/I wanted to find out which angles were best and most effective. I also wanted to find out which lighting conditions were the best so I was prepared when it came to taking my actual photos.
Garageband was used to create the sound for our trailer, using different instruments to create different sound effects, such as drum beats for thuds and stings. I also used garageband for my sound tests so I could work out how to use it and whats sounds were effective.
I used Solvr to work out what were going to name our film. By making a mind map of different names and reasons why we can/can't use them it was really helpful to see which were most likely and then decide from there.
We used iMovie to edit all of the footage of the trailer. We added effects, sound, text and lots of different transitions. We made the trailer on iMovie, and also used the record function to add extra voic eovers and sound.
We used iPhoto to import all photos that I took for my magazine and poster, and we also used it to upload all of the footage that we filmed. This was really helpful as it transferred everything onto the iMac ready to be edited.
iShowU was really helpful throughout the process of making my media products. I was able to show my progress to the moderator through making pod casts and demonstrate my skills on different programs. I was also able to use it during my evaluation which was really useful, as I was able to use an interesting technology, rather than just writing an essay.
The Sony Mini DV camera was used to film all of the footage that we filmed for the trailer. With a good quality camcorder, it meant that the footage was of high quality, therefore the trailer looked more effective and more professional than it would if we were to just use a normal camera.
I used Photoshop to produce my film magazine and poster. This program was really helpful as it is meant that all of my work could be produced in one place. I could edit my photo, add text, change the colours, add effects use all the tools I wanted to make my products look effective.
I used Microsoft Powerpoint to create the pitch for my film so I could present it in an effective way. By using this program the pitch looked more professional, therefore made the idea look more appealing/
Prezi was really helpful when making my publication plan and presentation on my target audience. By creating a prezi it worked as a mindmap. I could refer back to this whenever I needed information to help me with my work as it document it in a quick and easy way.
Slideshare was a helpful technology as it allowed me to present my work in a more professional way than just writing an essay. It allowed me to upload slideshows onto my blog and made them easier to view.
The SLR camera was very important when making my magazine. By using a camera as a good as this, it meant that my photo was very clear and good quality, giving the magazine a more professional finish and a more effective look. I had experience on how to use an SLR from my AS work, therefore this was really easy.
Word it out allowed me to make decisions on certain things, such as the name of the production and distribution company logos. It created a mind map of words associated with the genre and the name of the film to help think of an effective name for the companies.
