... Physical objects that are part of technology.

Camera Stand

Also known as a tripod. This item is used to stabilize equipment; in thiscase, a video camera. This is an essential item as it avoids bumps andshakes of the camera when recording and also makes smooth pans.

I used this throughout my filming, from start to finish as it gives aprofessional shot. At the start I was wary using this item as it wasdifferent to ones I have used before. By the end I was using it perfectlyand producing consistent shots.

As I begun using this item with some knowledge already, I have improvedslightly and learnt how to balance and get the right angle when using atripod. An example of this, was when filming over a whiteboard, as I hadto get the right balance whilst also only getting what I needed in the shot.

Lighting Kit

A lighting kit is used in various ways when filming and is used to makedramatic effect.

Before this project I had never used a lighting kit before and I didn't useone when filming my preliminary. However, throughout my process Igained basic knowledge and chose to use them in my final production.This turned out to be a positive, because it made my final scene moreprofessional and realistic.

I have learn't how to set up, put away and use a lighting kit throughoutthe process of my production and this is something I am proud of.

Video Camera

This is an electronic device combining a video camera and a videorecorder. Because I am only a college student I don't have access tocameras that are used to produce real life films in the film industry, Iused a camcorder.

I had little, next to nothing, experience with the specific camera I used torecord both my preliminary and my final production, however I didexperience in using cameras for photography and film.

I learnt new skills with formatting and recording in depth with thiscamera. And I can now say my camera skills are of higher knowledge.

...is various program's and software's on computers, used to edit, createand make different aspects.

Adobe Premier Pro

Premier Pro is the main software at my college and I was advised to useit. At the beginning of my project I had never used this program and hadonly used final cut. I found easier and simpler. However, I made theswitch after creating my preliminary. I learn't so many things and knowso many tools within premier pro now, than I did before my project.

I believe this area is my most improved knowledge from this project.

For example, I created various edits in my final production on thisprogram.

Adobe After Effects

Before starting this project I had never used Adobe After Effects before,just like Adobe Premier Pro. I began with no knowledge of this programand ending the project with a large understanding of this program.

I taught myself the tools and different techniques used in the program,through you tube and trial and error.

The end result of the skills have learnt are shown in my final production;especially with the animation I created from scratch for the productioncompany- Yume Productions.

Conclusion

To conclude I have learn't to edit, record, film and produce at a higherquality through doing this project. This was through physical andcomputerized technologies that I never used before or had only littleknowledge.

The final outcome of the project was a massive improvement from mypreliminary and is shown through my blog, my progression.
