Evaluation Question 7

Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

The preliminary task of which we have had difficulties acquiring was very rough and had little understanding as to where it was going. Now however, with our latest project there is a visible difference, a lucid knowledge of what it is and its audiences. This was achieved by learning the idiosyncrasies of the specific genre and what the fans expect. Many hours were spend in research of the genre and the audience whom enjoy this. We also learned to take more time and care in editing, though most importantly, filming. A movie is not made by great edits, but mainly, great shots.

Evaluation Question 6

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

There have been various technologies used in the process of making our media product, the main technology/software we have used is final cut, final cut is a post editing software used to add after effects and make edits, we have made use of these facilities by using a various range of these effects such as slow motion for a section of our film. Also using sound effects and recorded sound to enhance the overall media product. Transitions have also been utilized in a variety of ways mainly in the form of a cross fade which is the main transition we use, but jump cuts have also been added to add suspense to parts that require it.
