Evaluation question 6 Jahaan Khaliq

1. Evaluation question 6 What have you learn about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

2. Filming this thriller, the group and myself have had to become familiar with a number of different technologies. The main technology being the MacBook and iMovie. We had to learn how to edit effectively on the iMovie, something which many of us had not done before. As we used iMovie more, it became easier to edit and add effects and sound. During editing our preliminary task we learn basic skills such as cutting and adding sound which helped us in editing our actual thriller. MacBook and iMovie

3. For our assignment we also had to keep a blog for the planning and researching of our thriller. As well as updates on our construction of the thriller. We used wordpress to upload many different planning and research work such as 9 shot analysis and some research work. We had to learn how to use this website as well as organise our entries into different categories. We also uploaded some footage to YouTube include our rough cuts, our company ident. Many of us already had a firm grasp on how to work YouTube, but uploading and adding tags and labels was a new experience. Wordpress and YouTube

4. For our music originally we decided to use garage band. A music programme which was downloaded onto the MacBook's. However my group and I did not like this programme for many reasons so we decided to turn to Sound cloud. Which is a copyright free music website which allows you to take music clips others have uploaded for free. Soundcloud

5. To film the thriller we used two SLR camera’s. One camera we used for all the close up shots and mid shots. The second camera we used on the tripod for the long shots. We developed our filming skills a lot using these cameras. Digital camera and tripod
