The document discusses the various technologies used during the different stages of a film production process. During pre-production, the group used Google Docs, Blogger, YouTube, and Celtex to conduct research, share information, view trailers, and create a script. During production, they used a DV camera, voice recorder, and Final Cut Express for filming, recording audio, and editing. In post-production, Google Docs was used to create a questionnaire, and the finished film was uploaded to YouTube and shared on social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, and Tumblr. Blogger was highlighted as the most successful tool as it provided an accessible online diary of the production process.

2. Technologies used
At the start of the process we decided that we want to use the best
quality applications and software so that it is the best it can be. We
used:
• Google docs
• Celtex
• Final Cut Express
• Blogger
• Excel
• DV cameras
• Voice Recorder
• YouTube
• Facebook/Tumblr/Twitter

3. Pre-Production
Before making the film we used the
internet to research similar films and
look into what aspects are involved in
a horror film. When we found useful
information we made a post on
blogger so the information was there
when we needed it in the future.
Blogger is a simple way to present our
information in a way that looks
presentable. We used YouTube to
look at trailers of the similar films.
Google Docs was used when we
needed to create a questionnaire
because it is easy to use and it is easy
for people to access. Celtex is a form
of media software that helps create a
script. We used it because it creates
the script in a way that looks
professional.

4. Production
During the making of the film we used a
DV camera because it is a quality camera
and we wanted our film to be the best
quality it can be. I think we were
successful with the camera because we
haven’t had any experience with this kind
of camera. To record our voice mails we
used a voice recorder and this was also a
new technology that we haven’t used but
it was easy enough to use and I think that
I would use this in the future. To edit our
film, after we had finished filming, we
used final cut express and it is software
that we have used before so we used it
fluently. I think Final Cut Express was the
easiest software to use because there are
simple tools that help the editing process
simple and easy.

5. Post-production
After finishing our film we
had to use Google Docs
again and create a
questionnaire for people to
fill in so we got some
feedback. We also uploaded
the video onto YouTube.
This then gave us the
chance to share it on other
social networking sites such
as Twitter, Facebook and
Tumblr.

6. Blogger
I think Blogger was the most successful thing we
used because the blog is easy to make and it is
accessible for everyone in the group to use. The
blog is almost like a diary showing different
stages of our production and it is a way to look
at what everyone else in the group has been
doing. It is a way to present all completed work
in one place which is a great aspect when
coming to complete the production process.
