The document discusses the process of editing a title sequence using various software and hardware. It describes using Final Cut Pro software to edit individual clips into a professional-looking video. Blogger was used to create a blog to document the process and store information. Slideshare and YouTube were used to upload blog posts and share work. A camera and tripod were used to film the title sequence, with the tripod enabling stable shots and camera movement. The process provided an opportunity to learn new editing, filming, and presentation skills.

3. Throughout the process of editing our title sequence we
used the software called Final Cut Pro. Using this software
enabled use to transform our individual clips that we had
taken and create a professional looking video. We used this
software on the Apple Macs and it gave us a real advantage
to create a fantastic title sequence. I had never used this
software before, so it allowed me to see how professional
film editors produce and edit their final piece. It allowed me
to discover new elements such as the blade tool, which
allows us to cut your clip down so you have what you need.
Furthermore, we were able to different transitions and
effects, so that it wasn't just one clip after another. We
were able to create a much scarier film by being able to add
non diegetic sound and typical horror fonts.

5. We used Blogger to create our blog and to keep updated with
what we have been doing during the process. I had never used
Blogger before and I thought it was a great way of being able
to post about what you have been doing. For example, after
filming, I did a post on what I had done during filming. It was
very quick and easy to create a new post and you could upload
documents from elsewhere onto your blog. Using Blogger
enabled me to see what I had done and what I needed to do
next. It also allowed me to store information I had gathered.
For example, I posted about different fonts I could use within
the title sequence. Overall, I learnt how to produce posts as I
had never done that before and I was able to look back to see
if I needed to add anything else in to make it better.

7. I used slideshare and Youtube to upload some of my posts on
my Blog. Slideshare is a website with lots of different
presentations with various information. It also allows you to
upload a post from a different type of document onto your Blog.
Slideshare enabled me to gain knowledge on different areas of
the horror genre before and during the filming and editing
process. This was very useful as I was able to further my
knowledge and be able to give advice to members within my
group. Furthermore, I used Youtube to upload my pitch and my
finished title sequence. At the beginning of the process I didnt
know how to do that, but with some help I was then able to do
this which was very useful. I also used Youtube to upload some
sound ideas. For example, on my Blog, I have a post on non
diegetic sound.

9. In terms of hardware I used both the camera and tripod to film our
title sequence. I had never used a tripod, however it was really
useful as it allowed us to use different camera shots and
movements. For example, we were able to pan. The tripod also
allowed you to keep the camera more stable. We used a digital
camera and sometimes took it off the tripod for shots like the low
angle shot from the ground. Using this equipment made it really
easy to film our title sequence. The tripod allowed us to be
creative as we captured some interesting shot types. We used the
tripod to get an aerial shot, however we cut this in editing. We
used the camera to get some practise before filming the real
thing. On my blog there is a post of us taking some practise shots
to perfect our technique of shots such as a pan.

10. From this process I have learnt a lot. I know understand how
film editors edit their work and what goes into the filming and
editing process. In addition, I understand how to produce a Blog
and how to upload different documents to it via Slideshare and
Youtube. Also, I have learnt different camera shots and
gathered lots of research on the horror genre by looking at
various websites on the Internet. I have learnt how to edit and
different techniques within editing, such as transitions. Finally, I
was able to work with my group members and we always knew
what needed doing and who was doing each bit. Overall, I have
learnt lots of new things to help me in the future.

11. I think the production of our title sequence was very successful as it
allowed to use different software and hardware. I am particularly proud
of the high angled shot which then goes straight into a tracking shot. I
think this was a creative shot and followed the convention of a shot type
you would find in a horror film. It also puts the audience into the shoes
of the main character and makes them feel vulnerable. However, I am
very pleased with how our title sequence has turned out as we put a lot
of work into it. The only limitation was we didn't have a filter to make
the action appear a little brighter as we filmed in the dark. However, we
were able to alter that slightly when we came to edit it.
