1. Use Of ICT Equipment
Elise Daniels

2. Video Camera -
To create the variety of scene which make up my trailer I will need to use an
appropriate video camera with the use of a tripod to take steady shots. I
will use a video camera or a camera with video functions to film the
individual shot which will then make up my shots.
The chosen camera that I will use to record my trailer needs to have a zoom
function. This is due to some of my shots being taken from different
distances and for the horror conventions that I am trying to create.
My video camera will also need a light feature. This is based on the
different scene I will be filming in different lighting conditions. Some
aspects of my trailer are filmed at night.

3. Memory Sticks-
I will be backing up all my work onto memory sticks. I will be doing this to
make sure I save all aspects of my work and do not loose them. I will use I
memory stick in my video camera so all the scenes and saved straight
away. Once I then begin to edit I will also save any work I do on to another
stick. This will enable me to do work on the school computer, schools
laptops and my laptops at home quickly and easily.
I will need to regularly save my work to make sure it’s up to date and so I
don't have to risk doing my work over again.

4. Laptop/Computer
I will be using the school computer during lesson times to edit and produce
any of my work. As the school systems can sometime be un-reliable or run
slow, I will also be working on my school and home laptops.
Working on the laptops and computer will allow me to access any
information on the internet or any programmes/software that I need to
use. Using laptops will also allow me to carry on with my work outside of
school time.

5. Software - Premier Pro
I will be using software such as Adobe Premier Pro to edit my trailer. Premier
Pro will is time line based video editing software. Premier Pro supports
high resolution video quality and audio sample level editing. Premier Pro
allows you to import footage and then have play back options directly on
the time line. Therefore this means you can edit in sections and choose
which part on the time line you want to watch or edit. I will also be able to
add dialogue or audio onto the time line and edit my scenes. This means I
can add sound effects, or music within the background.

6. Software - Photoshop
Adobe Photoshop is a graphics editing programme. Photoshop is an
important piece of software to use during the development of my trailer. I
will be able to create scenes of Photoshop to add into my trailer. For
example, opening blank screens with writing on. I will also be able to edit
my shots. Photoshop will allow me edit scenes form Adobe Premier Pro
directly. Any changes I make in Photoshop will immediately be updated on
Premier Pro.
Features include, cropping and slicing, Typing, Video editing, touch up and
healing tools etc. Overall Photoshop will allow me to develop my trailer,
enhancing the horror genre.

7. Software - iMovie
iMovie is video editing software application for Mac and iOS, (iPhone,
iPad and iPod touch). iMovie enables footage or photos to be imported,
and the user can then edit the clips. This may include adding titles,
music, effects, colour correction and video enhancement tools. Along
with the other software, iMovie will help me to develop my trailer. For
example, I would be able to fade the transitions of my slides.
Overall the use of the software and devices will allow my trailer to be
created to a professional standard, and become more appealing to my
target audience.
