the technologies that we used.

we used the computer so that we could be able to use different types of software's and the Internet. Also we as going to store our project on the computer. The programmes we used on the computer:

1. Adobe Premier Pro
Adobe Premier Pro was used to edit our opening and put everything together like soundtrack, titles and order of footage. we had a tutorial were we were able to learn how to edit and use different functions on the programme that would help make our editing look good.

2. Adobe After effects we used Adobe affects to create effects for our opening, we also used it to make our production logo and titles, after effects allowed us to make our opening more attractable. we was able to use it after we had been given a tutorial and anything that we did not know how to use we we watched demos which showed use step by step what to do.

3. Photoshop Photoshop was used to edit our profile pictures. it was my first time using photoshop so i was able to learn how to brighten the picture and add text around the image to annotate it.

4.Google images Google images was used to find images for my moodboard and to find images for my blog. Google images helped because it helped my to make my blog more presentable

4.Google web search engine Google help with the research that i needed to do before planning my opening. Also we was able to find out a lot of sites that would be useful to use like free sounds, we was going to get our soundtrack from this website but Duane made an excellent soundtrack fitted more with the theme.

5.Windows Media Player We imported the opening into a file that would play on windows media player from Adobe Premier Pro so that we all would have access to it and share it with friends so that we would be able to get feedback and see whys to improve the opening.

6.Blogger Blogger was used to put our planning and researching together and to show what all happened in the production of the opening.

12. Marantz voice recorder

we used this to record our voiceover

we used the mobile phones so that we would be able to contact each other for help, schedule meeting and share ideas.

we used a digital camera to take pictures of our characters and to take pictures of our locations, i already knew how to use the cameras so i found the camera easy to use and found it simple to download the images onto the computer.

we used the video camera to record outside of school and we used the HD Camera to record in school. the video camera and Hd camera were harder to use as i did not know how to set up the camera and how to change the setting so we had a tutorial and i learnt how to function the camera effectively, also we learnt how to position the camera so that we could hide the shadows and that the lightening would not be too bright or too dim.

we used the tripod to keep the camera steady.

we learned how to use the lights in the camera room to make sure that our lightening is correct.

Using these technologies allowed our production to to be made. also these technologies helped us to make our production the best that it could be because we had a variety of things to use.

i have learnt how to:

• use video cameras correctly both HD and digital
• use adobe premier pro and adobe after effects
• position the camera correctly so that the lightening is correct and that their are not any shadows
• i learn how film producers put films together.
