1. What have you learnt about
technologies from the process of
creating this product?
Evaluation – Question 6
2. Hardware
In order for me to record, I used a Flip Video camera which
I found very easy to use and thought that the USB port
made it so much easier to import all of my videos on to the
computer. However because of its size I found it difficult to hold
and keep steady.
Therefore I had to use a tripod. I had never used a tripod before
this project and I learnt how to move them in different directions
to capture each camera movement.
3. Software
To edit all of my videos I used Serif MoviePlus X3. I was
already familiar with this program before using it for my
products. Therefore I understood what I could do in terms of
editing and how.
However then the school updated the system and got Serif
MoviePlus X6 and I found it a little more difficult to navigate and
edit. This meant that doing the preliminary task really helped in
order for me to gain understanding of the software and practise
for editing my final product.
4. Internet Websites - Blogger
I found Blogger very easy to use, the website was easy to
navigate and upload posts, pictures and videos were simple.
However I found it difficult to upload posts on different pages. It
took me a while but I learnt how to upload all of my work on my
Preliminary Work page, Production Work and Evaluation.
I also learnt that in order for my video’s quality to be great, I
had to upload them onto YouTube first and then post them onto
my blog.
