Evaluation question 6
1. What have you learnt about
technologies from the process of
constructing this product?
2. After using Final Cut Pro to edit our film, we
have learnt many different things. Firstly, we
had to overcome many problems when trying
to use a green screen to create the desired
effect. Although it was not a fault in the
software, it was difficult to edit in a green
screen when filming against green walls. This
created many imperfections when trying to
edit.
3. Another problem we faced when trying to edit
was our use of lighting. We decided against
using high key lighting, instead using ambient
lighting, when trying to create a dark
atmosphere. However, this made the quality
of the picture suffer, and trying to find the
correct balance of lighting was difficult to
overcome.
4. We have also found that when trying to edit in a green screen
when the shots have been filmed at an angle, the mirror
image shots also had to be filmed at an opposite angle, equal
to that of the first shot. This problem became apparent when
attempting to flip over a shot using final cut pro. This meant
shots had to be re-filmed.
One final problem we faced when filming was the transition
from dark to light, as the camera needed time to adjust and
focus. However, the shot needed to be quick, and the camera
could not focus in on time. This meant the shot had to be
removed, and an alternative was found.
