The document discusses the technologies and hardware used to create a media product. It describes using Final Cut Pro to edit shots and create rough drafts. GarageBand was used to sync music to video scenes. Motion was used to create animated titles with different fonts, sizes, movements and colors. Cameras from the college were borrowed to film footage. A tripod was mostly used to get steady shots, while some footage was captured using a camera's swivel screen or fig rig. The process helped learn more about software like Final Cut Pro and experimenting with features in Motion.

3. In our editing stages I was the one who used Final Cut Pro to edit all of
our shots and put them together in to the sequence. Before producing a
final version we created two rough drafts using final cut pro to get
feedback and see what shots would have needed to be re-shot. I had some
experience working with similar software before so it was natural that I
was the editor however while exploring the software I learned more about
the different transitions and filters available.

4. GarageBand was the other main software used in the creation of our
product. The other members of my group would be creating and editing
the soundtrack for the sequence as I produced some of the finished
scenes. We would periodical save what I had done so far and export the
scenes so that they would then import the footage into Garageband and
sync the music with what was happening in the scene.

5. Motion was the only other main software used in the product. I used Motion
to create the titles and the animated movements they used to appear and
disappear from the shots. I had experimented with the different fonts
available, the size of the text, movements and colour for a few weeks before
and during editing to create the best and most suited titles for out sequence.

7. We borrowed the cameras from the college to film all of our footage for
the media product. We used these cameras because they have the best
quality that we have available to us without a budget to film on. I did
some of the filming around my room, using still shots to show the viewer
different elements of the room. I found the swivel screen on the side of
the camera very useful for these shots while I did some high angle and
low angel shots, and using the camera I was able to see what was in frame
without straining my neck and body to see.

8. We used the tripod for almost all over our shots, because it was the easiest
way to get a steady shot. We had experimented with different ways to film
the scenes and found that they looked more professional and easier to edit
if the shots were taken using the tripod. Although their were some
troubles in moving or adjusting the camera between shots the results are
still much better then they would have been using the fig rig for the most
of the shots.
