The document discusses several technologies used in the production of a film: An HD camcorder was used for filming and provided clearer picture quality and sound. It had settings to adjust brightness and background that helped suit the film. A Dell Inspiron laptop was used to save all work files and footage. Editing software was used on the laptop. Blogger was used to blog about the production process and post production. It allowed embedding of videos and slideshows to narrate the process. Slideshare.net was used to upload PowerPoint presentations and embed them on the Blogger site. It provided a simple way to share presentations online. Sony Vegas Pro video editing software was used for

2. HD Camcorder:
The camcorder was a key piece of technology needed in the
production of our film. I used a HD camcorder, which gave me
clearer and brighter picture quality and sound. The HD camera
also had a range of settings regarding brightening the picture,
or changing the background, which allowed to test and adjust
the options to suit our film. I think the brighter and clearer
image quality of the camcorder was particularly useful as a
generic convention of our genre, romantic comedy, is that the
atmosphere at the beginning of the film is bright and cheerful.
We were able to create this as a result of the HD camcorder.
The camcorder was also a really easy piece of technology to be
able to use, which was especially useful due to our amateur
experience. The general tools needed were the on/off and replay
button which were easy enough utilise, however we fiddled
about with a number of settings and discovered techniques such
as depth of field, which I learnt allowed us to blur the
background but keep the foreground in focus, which we used in
the close-up make-up shots. I also learned how to film panning
shot, as well as improve my framing of shots, and use of a range
of camera shots and angles e.g. mid-shot, close-up and pan
shot. The camcorder is also small and compact which allowed us
to film shots in more confined space and move the device
around more readily.

3. Dell Inspiron 15
The Dell Inspiron played a key role in the creating of
my opening sequence. I saved all my work on it.
Used my editing software , all the clips were saved
on it. How to use power point and stuff.

4. Blogger
With this coursework task I found Blogger.com extremely useful to use; it
has been the main programme that I have used during it. I found it easy to
keep track of my work using its online record system which we have kept all
of our media work on and I have used it to update and record all of the work
that I have done for this task and others so far it also allowed me to present
my work in a clear and consistent way. In this task I have used Blogger.com
to blog the production, research and planning and also post production. I
found it easy to use and to sign up for it; and also to maintain anything that
needs doing or updating on my magazine; I think Blogger.com is an
excellent source for recording work with. The fact that you can embed
videos and slideshows as well as add images to it; helped me a lot with the
project as it allowed me to narrate and show how I did things and also find
different technologies in order to do so.

5. Slideshare.net
I used slideshare.net to upload and eventually embed
my PowerPoint presentations onto blogger.com. I
find this an easy website to use as it doesn’t require
users to create a log in or account; though there is
the choice to; I used a guest account which allows
you temporary access. After uploading a PowerPoint
onto the website you must convert it; which is done
automatically after it uploads and once that is done
you can collect the link to it and copy and paste that
onto blogger.com. I would definitely use this again as
its simple and less complicated that I thought it
would be. This programme will allow me to make my
evaluation interactive.

6. Sony Vegas Pro
Sony Creative Software’s Vegas Pro 9 is an innovative, Windows-only non-linear
edit system (NLE) that has really exploded in recent years on the market. Fully
featured, the system also includes excellent built-in tools for audio editing,
graphics and titling, DVD and Blu-ray authoring, and more. Included with the
latest version of Vegas Pro 9 is 4K resolution (RED) compatibility and enhanced
native XDCAM EX support. Editors can work with unlimited video tracks for
multitrack editing, and the program includes a great multi-camera workflow. It
also ships with over 190 customizable video filters and effects.
There is plenty of compatibility between other Sony Creative Software apps,
including Sound Forge and the ACID family of software
