What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

I have learnt how to use technology more efficiently during the course. Previously, i have had no experience with camcorders, and anything other than basic editing software, so this was a big step up for me. Using iMovie, i quickly became more experienced in the post-production of a film. Editing was a challenge, as i had 3 timelines running at the same tine; one for picture, one for sound and the other for music. This meant lining it all up to look good and effective took a long time, and was something i didn't do very well. Also, i had trouble with the title feature, i was unable to get the credits the way i wanted them, though this is was probably down to my inexperience and lack of knowledge of the software. This meant that the titles look unprofessional, and don't fit it well with the style of film i originally set out to make. Although i did learn to edit better by using effects and transitions. Even if it isn't evident by my final piece, my use of the software has improved since the start of the course.

As well as a the creation of the film, i used technologies in other ways. I used Blogger to keep posting my work on. I used powerpoint to create a pitch presentation to show to the class. To put the presentation on my blog,, i used "slideshare", a program that uploads presentations to the internet and converts them so they can be posted on websites and blogs. This was useful for me as it allowed to show what i was doing for planning and research.  I used Youtube to search for videoa to post on the blog, and upload videos i'd made over the course.
