- 1. What have you learnt about the technologies from the process of constructing your product?
- 2. Due to me being a photography student, I feel comfortable and knowledgeable around my camera. I used my Canon EOS 600D in widescreen film mode on auto-focus as I felt no need to change to manual because I didn’t want any pull focuses or any specifically focussed shots. I also used my tripod during filming. I chose one with a smooth panning ability and spirit level bubble in order to create level, steady shots. The panning came in handy to follow action, for example when Isabel moves from the table over to the pool table. To get clear audio after my initial footage’s audio was noisy, I recorded sound simultaneously as filming on my iPhone 5 after discovering that sound quality was higher. I then uploaded the audio clips to the computer and overlaid with footage on Adobe Premier Pro CS5.5. I’ve never tried this before and feel I am now more confident doing this in future.
- 3. I feel I am a lot more confident using Adobe Premier CS5.5 postproject than I was at the start. I began to experiment with more advanced use of the programme such as overlaying footage with blend modes in order to create interesting and professional effects. Throughout editing, match-on-action shots became easier to edit together as I recognised fluency in my footage. In order to manipulate colouring, I became more confident in adding and changing lighting and colouration effects to footage. I added the same effect to every shot to get uniform colouration within my footage. I also used the DeNoiser effect successfully for the first time to optimise quality and clarity of my audio.
