Evaluation Activity 6

Prior to filming, I have photographed 
 Louise Jarvis , adjusting the Camera settings 
ensuring that everything is in tact and working 
to prevent a disastrous filming session , which
we had previously experienced.
She ensured that the tape was correctly inserted ,
and that the tape was rewound to the beginning ,
generally we found working with the camera provided 
by the school , fairly easy to use.

The picture to the left

Organizing the tripod in
the spot where we was
about to film . A Tripod
was practically essentially 
When filming.
















Throughout the course of making and editing , our opening sequence, I have used Photoshop on numerous occasions to to convey our ideas visually onto the blog , to the left is a screen shot of a clip of our video pasted onto youtube , where I highlighted a key feature to the clip  which was the credits . I find photoshop extremely helpful to express ideas put forward by the group in a visual context.

Once we had filmed all the clips 
to our opening sequence , and 
Put them together on Imovie ,
when editing , a problem which 
we encountered was that we 
were unable to find a suitable 
instrumental or music background
for our opening sequence.
Being unable to find a suitable 
instrumental/song for our opening 
sequence was prolonging our 
production. We had originally found
a instrumental which we all felt 
worked exceptionally well with our
opening sequence however we then
discovered that we had copyright 
issues with the song ,which meant

that we could no longer use this song.
This therefore meant that we had to 
think out of the box , since we couldn't
 find any suitable music off youtube 
and any other existing websites to go
with our opening sequence. In the end 
I ended up constructing our music from 
scratch on a music producing software
called Cubase 5 . At first I found it rather 
confusing , however after a while I began 
to get the jist of it , and as an end product
produced our final music instrumental , which
we included in our final opening sequence.

We used IMovie to Edit
 our clips and to
 construct them into our
final video . It was extremely 
helpful and easy to use.

We used youtube to upload 
our video onto our blog.
An additional reason we 
used it was to research 
music for a opening 
sequence which wasn't 
successful.

We used safari and 
internet explorer to 
research key concepts
of our film genre. 

We used a website 
called :www.flickr.com
to upload pictures we'd 
photographed onto our 
blog. Apart from a few 
errors flickr was
 reasonably easy to use.
