3. Research and Planning
Timetoast- We used this from of technology to
show our horror shot photos because of this
we provided evidence that we have been
planning and practising certain horror shots
due to this we are able to gain a better
understanding of shots used in OTS’s

4. Research and Planning
Keynote- We presented all of our research and
planning on keynote because we done the
majority of work on Macs. Because of this we
were able to show our teacher and examiners
that we have gained a greater understanding
of OTS’s. Because we have got a greater
understanding of OTS’s we can create a better
OTS

5. you will then be taken to this screen, from here you
can either write out your own blog or embed a form
of powerpoint. to embed, copy the embedding code to
the html section
Research and Planning
Technology: Blogger
Blogger was a completely new
technology to me as i had never used
it before. It was a good way for us to
present and store our research into
our OTS.
To use blogger you must first load up
your website with your own personal
domain name.
You can then go to the top right and click
new post
Once your post it ready it can then be published

6. Technology: Art of the title
We Used Art of the title to look at a variation of
linear, non-linear and symbolic titles. This enabled
us to get a clear understanding of what was
expected in an opening title sequence, and how
different genres of films presented different types
of opening title sequences and different types of
titles.
Research and Planning
We used the search bar shown in the top
right to filter through a variation of
different opening title sequences. we
entered key words like slasher and
symbolic to find a title sequence that was
relevant to our group.

7. Research and Planning
BBFC
We used the BBFC website ( British Board of Film Classification ) so that we was able to rate
our film with the correct classification. The picture on the bottom right shows the process we
had to go through so that the classification was met, otherwise it could cause huge problems
as underage people could be shown explicit images such as blood and violence which were
both present in our OTS.

8. • Twitter and Facebook
• We used twitter and Facebook to create synergy and to promote and
publish our swede.We was able to understand what our target audience
wanted and was able to get their feedback throughout the production which
gave us information of what they liked and disliked.We also gained a
connection with the audience through competitions to win prizes which will
also gain interests from other audiences as want the chance to win.
• By doing this we gained background knowledge of how audiences
interpreted our swede so when it come to our OTS we filtered all of our
knowledge gained from this to improve our OTS.
Research and Planning

9. Research & Planning
Technology - Slide
Share
We used slide share through out the researching and planning stage
to upload our assignments from other form of technologies such as
keynote/powerpoint to a blog post. Because we used slide share and
we were able to make our power points accessible for our audience
to read but it also meant that we could show Miss Connell our work
and show the examiners all the research,planning, construction and
evaluation work we have done. Slide share was mainly used at the
research and planning stage due to us needing to get sufficient
knowledge on OTS’ before we could construct one.

10. Research & Planning
Technology -
Youtube
We used Youtube to help us better our knowledge on
OTS’ in general but also better our knowledge of OTS’
in our certain sub genre. For example Youtube would
help us know how OTS’ is constructed and styled.
Also we used Youtube through out our research and
planning stages to get an idea of what camera shots we
should use, the use of mise en scene through out an
OTS. Also we gained a better understanding of how
long our OTS should.

11. Construction
Camera- We used this to film our footage.
This was a hand held camera therefore we
could use this both in hand and on a tripod
which gives us a different range of shots which
increases the quality in our OTS

12. Construction
Flixpress.com- We used that technology to
produce our production company bas an
animation this was benefited as it helped us
produce an ident for our film. This is crucial for
the mark scheme

13. Logic pro
We used logic to add music
and foley’s to our OTS. we
were able to filter through a
variation of loops to try and
find one that we thought was
suitable. once we found one
we thought appropriate we
simply dragged it into place.
We were also able to manipulate and
enhance the non diegetic sound in the
film. This enabled us to highlight the
sound in key moments, such as when the
knife was supposedly stabbing josh, we
were able to enhance that sound and
make it clear to the audience
Construction

14. ConstructionFinal Cut Pro:
This was the main
technology that we used
whilst editing. we used it
to cut shots and add
effects.
To first upload the
clips to final cut we
used log and transfer,
this can be found
under file
Once the files have
uploaded they will
appear in this column
where they can be
moved and placed
We were also able to add effects to our
film using final cut. these could be found
under the effects toolbar. We used the
effect of cross dissolve when we showed a
flashback. This effect made it easy to
understand that a flashback was happening.

15. Construction
• Free play music was a very useful technology as you was able to type in a
genre of music for example Rock and it would bring up many copyright free
and pay free music. In the end we didn’t use this for our music but it gave us
a great insight to the genre of music we wanted.

16. Construction
• For the music for our OTS we went through youtube to find copyright free
music where we had to copy the URL and place in onYoutube Converter
which converts the music fromYoutube to mp3, from there went to an mp3
file where we could put it into logic so that we could edit and place the
music to where we wanted it to be and to suit the OTS at the right time.

17. Construction
Technology - Quicktime
We used quicktime in the construction stage to convert
it from a final cut file to a quicktime, once we had done
this we could upload it onto youtube and then
eventually embed it onto our blog which meant Miss
Connell could see and also the examiners could see it.
Also because it was converted to a quicktime it meant
we could export it and share it to wherever we wanted
to share it, also this made it accessible for our audience
to see.

18. Construction
Technology -
Compressor
When constructing our OTS we used compressor to compress
our files to a ProRes format which would help us edit the
footage in final cut and make the editing sessions more efficient
and of a higher quality. Also because they were compressed into
ProRes it meant that all of our footage’s was of a higher quality
which meant at the end of the editing stage and once added the
music and titles our work would be of a higher quality because
our footage was a higher quality due to it being compressed into
ProRes.

19. Technology of Evaluation
Emaze- We used to answer question 2 which
meant we were able to gain more marks in our
evaluation, this showed we used a different
range of technology. Because we were able to
use emaze we were able to present this in a
modern way

20. Evaluation
• Slides for the evaluation was one of the best technologies out of all of them
that we were using.This was due to that it had an easy layout that you could
follow even if it was for your first time, the presentation of text and the
slides was creative and had many formats that you could use.
• This also gave us a wider use of technologies which was apart of the mark
scheme also we presented it in a stylish manner which the examiner may
like.

21. Evaluation
Technology -
Prezi
We used Prezi in the evaluation stage to answer
question 1 which was the conventions that we
either reenforced or challenged through out our
OTS. We used prezi to increase the range of
technology used when answer the evaluation
questions in order to gain more marks. Prezi
helps us present our work in a stylish and
modern way which the examiners will like to see
and spend time reading/marking.
