Question 6: Development using technologyFahrin Sultana

Editing We used Adobe Premier Pro to edit on the editing machines. At first it was quite difficult to get the hang of it. Some people in my group mastered it much more quicker than I did. However with practice you find that it’s easy to cut things out you don’t want

and to add in certain effects. This programme really benefits anything you are editing as there are lots of different tools to

help achieve your intended outcome. The programme looks like a sort of timeline (as seen below) and you can even zoom in to certain bits to really get the transitions right. You could also use a tool for the audio change as it allows the volume to all sound similar to a limit. Otherwise some bits end up being higher than other. It doesn’t sound right. In addition you could also create

titles. We successfully completed a title using numerous effects in one on our title.

Filming

This is the tripod. It was one of the most useful tool we had to help us have a steady and stable film opening. It was initially difficult to move around but with practice we got used to it.

This is the battery charger for the cameras. Of course it was useful as it helped charge our camera so that we could film for a lengthy time

The camera was the best part as it was very effective with different tools to help our scene. We could easily play back what we had recorded and we could also adjust the light on it depending on the circumstances

I have learnt that there is so much going on behind the scenes when a film is being made. There were so

many responsibilities even making this short film opening and I cant imagine just how much time and

effort has gone into major films being filmed and distributed. I learned how effective the camera can

be and how you can adjust settings on there to make it suitable for what you are filming. I have learned

how handy the tripod can be and how it really does make a difference to how your film is portrayed to

the audience.
