This document outlines various digital skills acquired for filmmaking, including using the Final Cut Pro tools of the blade and pen tools for trimming and adding fade effects. It also discusses camera techniques like framing, high and low angle shots, and zooming to convey meaning. Motion was used to create film titles and credits, while Jamendo provided unsigned tracks for the opening background.

1. Use of digital technology
- What skills I have acquired

2. Final Cut Pro
Blade tool – this tool was used for trimming a
specific amount of a media clip.
Pen tool – this was a transition which was used
to add in a fade in/fade out effect.
Cut – the essential technique of cutting to one
scene to another which displayed a sense of
continuity.

3. Camera
Framing – ensuring the actor of the media clip is placed in the
correct place, for example in the middle of the screen.
High angle/low angle shot – high angle shot was used to
portray the actor as inferior, whereas the low angle shot was
used to make the actor appear powerful.
Zoom in/out – zooming in illustrated the importance of a
subject or individual. Zooming out of an object/individual
allowed the viewer to gain the whole picture of the media clip.

4. Motion
This software was used to create titles
and credits for the film openings. It
was a necessary task as it had to be
portrayed to the audience what exactly
was being shown to the and then they
can make an association between the
title and the film itself.

5. Jamendo
We had to use unsigned tracks for
the background of our film
opening. We were successful in
finding suitable tracks and they
added to the suspenseful mood of
our film.
