Evaluation 6 - Evaluation Of Technologies

The Hardware -
The main piece of media technology that we used was the computers, this is because it had all of the software and online tools to help us such as premiere to edit and websites to get non copyrighted music. We also used a HD video camera as it is very compact and easy to set up and record as well as transfer the video files over to the computer ready to edit. Another physical thing we used was a tripod, this ensured that the shots would be consistently steady and professional. We also used a small voice recorder to record the voiceovers for the intro, this was useful as it meant we could transfer the files over to the computer to be edited very easily and efficiently.

The Software -
Our main software that we used was premiere, this was because we used this to edit the video, the music and the titles all together. Some of the things I learnt on this editing software was how to do freeze frames and how to speed up or slow down a clip. This came in useful for our movie intro as there is parts where we used freeze frames to show individual characters. I also learnt how to zoom in to different parts of a clip. We also used this for transitions such as when we faded to black to show the passing of time. Another software we used was PowerPoint this was to show and share our ideas for our film intro with our peers to get feedback and improve upon it. We also used PowerPoint to create our production logo and is was very simple. I also used Sony Vegas Pro 12 to edit the subtitles into Evaluation 5, I learnt to do this via youtube. This program is shown in the screenshot below.


The Online Tools -
We used many online tools and websites to help us produce our film and show our progress and production with blogger being the main one for showing our progress being blogger. This was a good way of recording our progress and planning as it was easy to create new posts and didn't have the risks of losing papers and folders of coursework. We also used outlook email to communicate and send over planning, music, research and other ideas this was again very successful as it saved a lot of time. We used YouTube's creator space to get our music as it showed whether it was copyright free and able to use. Another way we used YouTube  was to upload our drafts to get audience feedback so we could improve, we also used YouTube to look a other teen angst openings. We also used social media such as Facebook messenger to communicate with each other so we knew what we were doing and who was doing what.

Our Production Logo

We have called our production company 'Tomorrow Productions' because looking at tomorrow means looking forward into the future representing the younger generation. We also called our production company this as it is the production company of the future and is ahead of other production company's. The logo is a theatre with Tomorrow Productions written across the screen as our films would be shown in theatres due to being quality.
