EMBEDDING (RESEARCH AND
PLANNING)

Process
Go to a YouTube you need
video, click the share button
Click the embed icon.
Copy the embedding code Click the HTML button on
the blog post
Paste the embedding code
on it

TRANSITIONS (CONSTRUCTION)
• We used transitions (such as a cross dissolve) in our OTS. We mainly used them for
temporal ellipsis (to show the pass of time).
In Final Cut pro look for this symbol which should be
on the far right of the screen, just above the timeline.
Transitions are on the right. Choose the one you
want and drag it on the timeline where you want it to
go
There are a range of
transitions you can choose,
including wipes and fades.

TEXT (CONSTRUCTION)
• We used this for the credits and all the text seen in our OTS.
In Final Cut Pro look for the text symbol
which is at the top left of the screen just
above the libraries
Choose which one you want and drag it
on the timeline. There are more if you
scroll down.
There is also a search bar if
you want to find a specific text.

PREZI (EVALUATION):
• We used Prezi for question 1 where we talked about the conventions of our OTS.

POWERPOINT ( RESEARCH AND
PLANNING)
We used PowerPoint a lot in our
research and planning mainly for
research tasks. An example of
when we used PowerPoint would
be here in our risk assessment
we used PowerPoint to make the
table for our risk assessment as it
is easy to use.
Or another example of us
using PowerPoint would
be this piece of the
evaluation where we used
PowerPoint.

PEARL AND DEAN (RESEARCH
AND PLANNING)
Pearl and dean is a website that we
used in our research and planning to
explore target audiences for other films
to help see what our target audience
would be. We found it helpful as it gave
useful information such as target age
and target social class.
Here you can see an
example of use using
pearl and dean for a
resealable arch and
planning task earlier on
our blog.

BLADING (CONSTRUCTION)
We used blading in our
video to cut clips together
mainly to create good and
effective match on action.
Here you see an example
of where we used
blading.

FOCUS (CONSTRUCTION)
We used a lot of deep
focus and focus pulls in
our final opening title
sequence to add some
more sophisticated shots
to our opening title
sequence.
Here is an example of
one of the focus pulls we
did
After focus pullBefore focus pull

VIDEO RECORDINGS
(EVALUATION)
We used a screen
recording software called
( ) to answer question 7
about looking back at our
preliminary and
comparing it to what we
have changed in our final
video
Here are some examples
of the screen recording
software and us using it.

PURPLE PLANET (RESEARCH AND
PLANNING)Purple Planet:
(http://www.purple-planet.com/)
-On the website Purple Planet I found
a load of score music that we can use
for our OTS, I especially liked the score
'Abandoned' which will give the film a
paranormal feel to it, with the piano and
stings playing. We will most likely use
this website for its score music as that is
the only kind of content it contains. The
presentation of this page is very good as
I can easily browse for what music I
want.

FREE EFFECTS (RESEARCH AND
PLANNING)Freesound:
(https://www.freesound.org/)
-On this website there is a lot more sound
effects that we can use, there is a simple
search that will looks up exactly what you
type in. I found a few sound effects we can
use for 'Loud bangs' however there is a
limited amount in terms of score music. We
will most likely use this website to find
different sound effects that we can use. The
presentation of this website is poor as it is
difficult for me to find the music or sound
effects that I want.

LAYERING (CONSTRUCTION)
Top layer, used to easily switch
between two different shots.
Main layer, where the main footage
is ordered.
Sound effects are placed under and
over the score music but
underneath the footage.
Score music is placed underneath
the footage.
We use laying in editing to visually see which layers of footage go on top of the other, we can even
easily see where the music starts and finish's, same with sound effect.

ZOOMING (CONSTRUCTION)
We used zooming in our OTS to amplify the
Facial expressions that our characters are
showing. Like this example where we start
The shot off as a medium shot to show the
Audience of the situation of Tom and Sachin
Are filming.
Then we zoom in on the shot just before the
characters hear the scream. This gives the
moment more suspense as the slow zoom
makes the audience feel uneasy, it also
allows us to show our characters facial
expression as they hear the horrifying
scream.

YOUTUBE ANNOTATIONS
(EVALUATION)
To put in annotations to our film, we used
Final cut pro to add text into our Final draft
explaining how our movie appeals to our audience.
To do this we added the blur text on top of our
Footage and placed it in the section of the footage
That we are describing.
All of our annotations were colour coded depending
On who wrote them. Jack was purple, Sachin was
blue and Tom was orange.
