The document discusses technologies learned from constructing a film opening. It discusses learning camera techniques like different shots and angles from practice. Editing software was used to arrange shots and remove unnecessary footage, which the group had to learn. Blogger was used to organize information and upload documents, though the group was unfamiliar with it initially. YouTube was used to upload and embed the finished video, allowing free distribution. Email helped organize filming schedules and share documents and blog links between group members.
