Learning film techniques

What was learnt? Evidence What it allowed us to do/restricted us to do
How to colour correct the product By colour correcting the bedroom scene, it allowed
our evening lighting, to look like morning lighting.
After uploading our film to the computer we realised
that the lighting was too dark, and after showing the
class our product they too were confused by the time
of day the opening was supposed to be. So after
colour correcting, our morning scene was achieved.
How to add credits We added our credits through FinalCut. We found
the font on www.dafont.com, and imported it into
FinalCut so we were able to use it again. The credits
allowed us to show the audience who the film was
produced by, what the film title was, and who was
involved in making the film. Adding credits also
allowed us to add different effects. For example, we
added in a cross dissolve so the credits would fade in
and out, instead of just appearing. This gave our
sequence a better finish.
How to add a soundtrack To add a soundtrack onto our thriller sequence we
used GarageBand. We wanted to create an original
soundtrack so that our thriller wasn’t like anyone
else’s. After we made the soundtrack on GarageBand,
we would import it into FinalCut and the film and
sounds would go together. By doing this, it allowed
us to create suspense and tension at certain points in
the film, like for instance when her identity was
about to be revealed.. However, I think by using
GarageBand, it did restrict us because there were
only a limited amount of sounds that we could have
used. So to improve we could have used different
websites that we were shown in class.
