The document discusses the skills, software, and planning used to create a film production. It describes using iMovie, Photoshop, Live Type, and GarageBand to develop credits and Final Cut Pro, Prezi, and SlideShare for editing, publishing documents, and sharing files with the group. Planning with call sheets, mind maps, and animatics helped ensure a smooth production process. Researching film conventions from 4 analyzed texts provided inspiration while allowing original ideas. Creativity involved building on conventions with imagination to separate the film from others.
