1. What have you learnt
about technologies
from the process of
constructing this
product?

2. I watched many different genres of film
opening sequences, to help me decide the type
of genre which I wanted to do. From that
research I realised horror films are the my best
choice to do as I am familiar with many films
and know how to use these for mine

3. • so I thought I should choose this genre because then I would enjoy filming
and planning the opening sequence. The films I looked at most carefully
were Insidious, Sinister and Paranormal activity, I studied intensely the
different types of camera shots, the music and the characters behaviour, and
I made sure I understood how they all work together to make a good opening
sequence.

4. • I went on websites such as http://www.bbfc.co.uk/
which gives me information on film classifications, this
information would help me when planning my opening
sequence. When choosing my music that i wanted to
use i had to make sure i used copyright free but i had to
make sure it went with the genre of my film, to do this i
used http://freeplaymusic.com

5. • The main website which I used when researching was
www.youtube.com this gave me chance to looks at lots
of different film opening sequences, and i could also
watch responses from audience members to get their
own feedback.

6. We filmed using my own camera the Nikon D3100 DSLR which is of a very
high quality video to film with using both my 18-55mm and 70-300mm lens.
We then edited with josh’s editing software Sony Vegas which josh was familiar
with and quickly got me up to speed so I could edit myself.
The main tool for this was the tripod as this held the camera steady to film but
we did use shots that didn’t require a tripod.
