1. what have you learnt about
technologies from the process of
constructing this product?
Technology has been an enormous benefit
for me and it has resulted in a higher quality
film. The use of both open source and
closed has resulted benefited my film in
both post and pre pre production.

2. Pre production
research
art of the title
For my research I Looked into the opening two
of other films of the same genre as mine. I used
the website called artofthetitle.com. This is a
website that showcases the opening titles of
many films. This website helped me refine my
ideas for the style of my film and also helped me
find the conventional pace and editing
techniques for my genre.

3. Pre-production
planning
celtx
Celtx is a software that allows you to create
scripts. It is an open source software that allows
you to create scripts with great speed and ease.
This was useful as It meant we could put more
time into the production of the film that we
would have had to spend writing scripts

4. Production
equipment
camera
• The camera we used to film our opening
sequence was a cannon Eos 5d. This is a very
high quality camera. The quality of the camera
helped make the final product look more
professional. For many of our shots we used a
macro lens. This lens is a very close up lens
with shallow depth of field. The depth of field
helped create the enigma of the final piece.

5. Post production
editing software
• To edit our opening we used Adobe premier
pro. This is a paid for software made by adobe
and it is a rivaling software to final cut pro. It
is a reasonably easy programme to use and
some of the effects on it helped to create a
more flowing and better looking film. Some of
the footage we took was shaky but with the
effect warp stabilizer we were able to make
our shot steadier and also help build more of
an enigma and give our film an eerie feel

6. Editing software
adobe after effects
• Adobe after effects is a software that allows
you to create visual effects. I used this
software to create both of the opening titles
of our opening sequence. After effects is
difficult to use and has a very high learning
curve but you can find online tuition on
websites such as video co-pilot which shows
you step by step how to create titles and
effects for your film.

7. Editing software
Soundtrack Pro
• Sound track pro is a aplle product that allows
you to watch your film while seeing the
timeling of sound. It has a wide library of
sound and combined with free sound sharing
websites we managed to find all the sound
effects we needed. Soundtrack Pro is easy to
use and helped raise the quality of are film
with near professional sounding sound.

8. Overview
• The technology we have available for use
today has meant that we have been able to
create a much higher quality of product and
create it with a certain amount of ease.
