Question 6. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
  1. Production
    1. What did we use?
      1. In the production of our film we used a digital camera. To plan our production I created mindmaps on paper and web.o2 tools such as GoConqr.
      2. What worked well?
        1. The mindmaps were well presented and easy for us to read which enabled me to present my ideas clearly to my group.
          1. The use of the digital camera allowed us to present our film opening in high quality in contrasts to smartphone quality. We used my phone to record our practice footage and the quality is much poorer.
          2. What did not work well?
            1. In our film we had a lot of handheld footage because we wanted a first person view, our tripod was broken to trying to keep our camera still was difficult for us and we had to make sure we got the dull, gloomy weather for our desired atmosphere.
              1. When creating online mindmaps, it was time consuming so for quick ideas we was better of using paper which then was more open to getting lost.
            2. Blogging
              1. What worked well?
                1. I instantly got to grips with all the web.o2 tools which allowed me to present my blogs to the highest standard.
                  1. I had a good clear layout which makes my blogs easily understandable and accessable.
                  2. What did I use?
                    1. I used Blogger to present my blogs, I found blogger very easy to use and enabled me to layout my blog exactly how I wanted it.
                    2. What did not work well?
                      1. Sometimes it was difficult to upload blogs which I created on web.2 tools as we had to find the embeded link which wasn't so obvious on some sites.
                    3. Research
                      1. What did I use?
                        1. I used mainly web.20 tools such as GoConqr, Emaze, Prezi, Voki etc to make my research more interesting.
                        2. What worked well?
                          1. Using these web.20 tools was fun for me so I found because I enjoyed it it allowed me to present my research at a high standard.
                            1. I originally had a pink, stripey blog however once we got into producing our film I wanted to make my blog more genre applicable so I used darker colours to create this effect.
                            2. What did not work well?
                              1. Due to my favouritism is the web.20 tools such as Emaze, Prezi, GoConqr - I failed to venture out to use different tools hence why all my blog posts use the same variety of sites.
                            3. Editing
                              1. What did we use?
                                1. For our preliminary task we used a mac book and used IMovie, this was the easiest option for us as we recorded our preliminary task on our phones. I also used this for my vlogs and other videos on my blog. However, for my final film opening I used Final Cut Pro X and found this much more advanced than Imovie.
                                2. What worked well?
                                  1. IMovie was easily accessable as it meant I could edit videos at home on my mac, it allowed me to get to grips with the editing software for basic effects.
                                    1. Final Cut Pro X gave me the ability to increase the ability of my editing skills and it had more advanced edits and effects allowing me to increase the quality of my final film.
                                    2. What did not work well?
                                      1. IMovie meant I had to upload all the clips to my laptop and the school mac so it was more confusing and meant it was easier for faults to happen.
                                        1. Final Cut Pro X was only available on the school macs which meant all editing had to be done in school. It also got quite confusing when trying to find my clips as there was so many different clips on the mac from other peoples work.
