After Effects
Shafia and I used Premier Pro in order to upload text to our trailer, this was
helpful to provide captions an credits. I also thought it was easy to use and it
allowed me to put the text into a composition of where I want the text to appear
on the video clip. You can also add transitions, we chose the typewriter effect as
it looked romantic and was used in the proposal film trailer as mentioned in
question one.

work in order to create the editing log. I have used this software throughout my high
school and college education so I already knew how to use it effectively.

Microsoft Powerpoint
Microsoft Powerpoint allowed me to create basic presentations. I think that it is
easy to use and it is a great way to share information as the slides separate
various aspects of information regarding different subjects. I also used it to create
my auditions poster by adding text and and images and putting them in to a
creative composition.

feedback videos and embed them onto my blog. I used YouTube to find out how to
use garage band and how to apply a flawless makeup look on to the models.

Mail App And Voice Memos App
As the voices of the characters were very muffled on the original recording Shafia and I
decided to use the voice memos app to record all of the script again and then later add
the clips to premier pro and add them to the trailer so that sound was loud and clear.
The mail app helped me to send the voice notes from my phone onto the computer.

Video FX Live App
The video FX live app was an app that I used before I started media just to record
videos in separate arts. It simply lets you record one clip then pause it then you can
carry on recording. I thought it would be a good idea to use this whilst videoing my
audition and audience feedback videos. It also allows you to add colour effects to the
videos.
