What have we learned about the technologies from the process of

construction?S.E.L.L. Productions

We have learned a lot about the technology throughout the process of the construction of our opening.

While filming, we tried out a range of different techniques until we found the best shot. We learned that the camera had to be situated quite a distance away from the acting in order to create the best shot possible.

One problem we came across was a squeaky tripod but during the construction of the opening of our film we worked out other ways of keeping the camera steady.

At first the Adobe Premier Pro software looked extremely mindboggling to all of us. However, while using the software we sought help from teachers and older media students about the different functions within the software. Once we were knowledgeable about Adobe, we found it a lot easier to edit and put together the opening of our film and even include some special effects!

As we had chosen to do a voice over on our opening, we had to learn how to add this to the timeline on Adobe as audio. It was difficult to get the sound levels right at first, as we used music and dialogue.

For some of us Tumblr took a little while to get to grips with, for example how we could upload files. Similarly, our school internet didn’t seem to like Tumblr which made it very difficult to upload some work quickly, however with a mix of home and school work we managed!
