2. Corel VideoStudio Pro
 I have learnt a lot from working on this project.
 For example, I didn’t know very much about the editing program,
Corel VideoStudio Pro - I had to learn everything from scratch!
 I had to discover all of the different capabilities that the editing
program had to offer; you can cut film clips and add clips next to
each other to create a meaningful narrative. You can also layer
different things such as film, music and sound effects. I also learnt
how to place titles into the film. Other capabilities are:
Transitions between film clips
Adding music to the soundtrack
Adding sound effects

I managed to use sound effects in the film such as
bird song and gunshots.
I used the internet to get music for the film. I got the
music from a website called ‘Royalty Free Music’.
These are some image examples of sound effects and
music that has been used in the film.

4. Camera
 When I started this project I didn’t know very much about the camera; I was very
unsure as I didn’t have much to do with the filming of my preliminary task
 I had to work out what all the buttons on the camera did, how to record our
footage and how to watch our footage back.
 I also didn’t know how to use a tripod so I had to familiarise myself with that as
well.
 I also used a still camera to take photos of the locations where we would be
filming.
 I placed the photos of the locations on the blog so that other people could see
where we would be filming too.
 The type of camera that we used was the same make and model as the one below.
It is called a Canon Legria HFM52.

6. Blogger
 My research and planning has been on a blog.
 When I started this project my first task was to create a blog using
‘blogger.com’ and then to put my preliminary task onto the blog. This being
my first time it took me a while to work it out.
 At the start of this project I hadn’t heard of blogger but now I know how to
do many different things with it such as:
 Putting in pages
 Creating blog posts
 Inserting images
 To place an image you need to click on the insert image icon next to the link
option on the toolbar at the top of the page. A page will then come up
asking you to choose photos from different places; I chose a file from the
upload selection. The photo then shows up on the page an then you need
to click add selected and then the photo will appear on the blog.
