2. o During the construction stages of our production the main
media technology we used was the internet for the website
blogger. We used blogger as a way of keeping track of
everything we we’re doing for the creation of our film trailer,
film magazine cover and film poster. The blog tracks our every
progress, from audience and product research, to our final
productions.
o The internet was also a way of helping us conduct our product
and audience research. With the use of search engines, or
allowing us to put questions for out targeted audience on the
internet (such as Twitter and Facebook).
3. o While we were constructing out production, there was an
considerable amount of use of camcorders and digital
cameras.
o The camcorders we used were of high quality, which enabled
us to get the professional look we wanted and needed for our
trailer. When trying to make our film trailer look professional
we also needed a tripod to keep our shots steady.
o The use of the digital cameras were also of high quality, this
again enabled us to produce high quality pictures for out
magazine cover and poster.
4. o When it came down to editing our trailer the software we
used was Power Director.
o Power Director is an off the shelf editing software, so like with
anything... There was minor problems.
The main problem we incurred was that now and again the
software wouldn't upload our project, which wasn’t a
problem at the start of the project, but when you’re half way
through the project it wasn’t the best.
o Despite this problem, this was the only problem we incurred
and therefore I believe this software is of above average
quality, and without it we wouldn’t have been able to make
our production.
5. o When it came down to creating our film magazine cover and
film poster, my team and I really struggled as photoshop is
quite a tricky software to be an expert on.
o The problems we found with this software was only because
we were inexperienced with photoshop.
o After making our magazine covers on this software, we were
able to create our film posters with a little more ease.
