The document discusses various technologies used in a research and filmmaking process. A scanner was used to scan documents for a blog and to share research with remote group members. A PC was used primarily for research, which helped broaden the authors' knowledge of how difficult research can be. A tripod was used to keep the camera stable during filming to avoid unprofessional, unbelievable shakes and allowed for different shot types and angles. A flip cam was useful for interviews and questionnaires because videos could be uploaded directly from the camera, making it quicker than a standard camera. A Mac was used for post-production to cut, add effects, and edit the film into an opening, allowing for more creativity than editing on a PC.

Evaluation Question 6 (Part 1): What have you learnt
about technologies from the process of constructing this
product?
The flip cam was very useful for interviews We used the MAC for almost all of our
and questionnaires and compared to the post - production. With the Mac we were
