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

Through the process of constructing this media product and outcome. I have personally and as working within a group, learnt several skills and techniques within the media department about technologies that I have used and experienced learning with. Some of the following products that I have learned to use are the following pieces of equipment:

Tripod
Camera
MAC computer
Premiere
Soundcloud
Blogger
Youtube
     Tube Chopper
     Prezi
     Imovie

All these pieces of equipment were used throughout the process of producing this final product. By using these several pieces of equipment, this has allowed me to develop my own skills and abilitys within media. Before producing the opening sequence, i didn’t have an understanding of how to use most of the equipment. However, throughout, i started to gain experience, advice and help and how to use pieces of equipment to help me progress within the stages of producing the opening sequence.

This is me, learning and using how to use the camera. Using the camera allowed me to, film and take pictures of relevant filming and action that was used within or towards the media project of the opening sequence. Using this form of camera was something that I had never done before. So I learnt how to use a filming camera within the media department, as well as key features and importance of such as what is in a frame, the 180 degree rule and having what is in the frame in focus. 

These are pictures of me using the pod. This is a piece of equipment, within media that I had never used before. So that by using this personally, I got an understanding of why tri pods are used, what they are and how effective it is to use one when in the process of producing an outcome within media. Tri pods are used, for a camera to attach itself to the top end of the pod, so that the camera can be securely attached and balance when in the process of filming. The tri pod can be adjusted to different levels as demonstrated within the images. 

Above are images of me using programmes on the Mac within the media department? The Mac is also a technology itself, that I learnt how to use. The programmes within Mac that I used were some of the following; blogger, YouTube, sound cloud, premiere, imovie and many more. These were all used within the process of producing the opening sequence the Ritual. By using these technologies were extremely helpful, and the main key to helping me has an outcome being the opening sequence.
