3. Research and Planning
Technology How was it used
Prezi We used Prezi because it is an
easy , affective and interactive way
of expressing ideas and planning our
work. It was easy to use as it was
set out in a simple way. This made
plotting answers and ideas easy.
Apple Macs We used the macs as our main
technology to plan out and research
information for our OTS. On the Macs
we used many different online sites like
Prezi to create power points as well as
research information and other films on
google and on the internet.
4. Construction
Technology How was it used
Tripod We used the tripod in our OTS to
achieve a steadier, more focused and
less shakey camera during filming.
The tripod was crucial to filming as it
allowed us to get smooth and good
quality shots as well as get a variety
of different shots from different
angles.
Garageband We used garageband to create music
for our opening title sequence.
Garageband was crucial as it allowed
us to make our own music that we
liked and wanted. It also made the
OTS better as the music added
tension and drama to the OTS. It
was simple and easy to use.
5. Evaluation
Technology How was it used?
Powtoon We used Powtoon for question 3,
which was What kind of media
institution might distribute your
media product and why? Powtoon
was an easy, interesting and affective
way of laying out our answers to the
question. We used it because
Powtoon is very different and
interesting compared to other slide
sites because it is colourful and has
many different animations which
would allow us to show different
computer skills and techniques.
6. Research and planning
Technology How it was used
Dafont
We used Dafont because it is an amazing website that
has thousands of different fonts that we could use for
our OTS, especially to match the style that we were
aiming for.
Youtube
We used youtube for our research and planning because
it is a great site for researching different things that we
need, for example we used it to compare our OTS to
films with similar opening title sequences and see what
aspects of them we need to keep.
7. Construction
Technology How it was used
Camera
The camera was a rather important technology to use in
our film, this is because we filmed all of our footage on it
and without it the quality wouldn’t have been as good
as it is now. The camera that we used was a DSLR
1150D Canon with a class 10 32g SD card.
IPhones
We used iphones during the construction of our OTS
for communication and also to add to our research
and planning. We used them to see what time we
should meet at our location and what items we would
need to bring, e.g different props. Also we took pictures
of the construction to add to our research and planning.
8. Evaluation
Technology How it was used
Emaze
We used this website to do question 2 of our
evaluation. This question was about representation
of different social groups. We decided to use this
website because it was different to the normal
presentation apps such as keynote and powerpoint, it
would also show the range of different ICT that we
used.
9. Research and Planning Slide share – is a website which we
used to upload keynote and
PowerPoint presentations on to be
able to embed them on to our
blog.
Final cut pro – is a editing software
exclusive to apple products. It
allowed us to edit and put together
our planning which was the horror
shots video and the preliminary.
Construction DaFont – is a website that has
thousands of free fonts to chose from.
We used this to pick our font for all of
our credits used in each draft.
Sony vegas – We used Sony vegas pro
11 to edit of drafts. We used this
because we had previous experience
with it and we found it easier to use.
Sony Vegas was more accessible for us
as we all have windows computers
where Sony Vegas can be bought from.
Evaluation Slides.com – Slides is a online business
presentation software. We used it to
complete our evaluation work. It had
many different features that we could
change but we kept it relatively simple
to create a professional look
However there was a time delay
completing work on here because of the
difficultity to find certain settings but
overall saved us time compared to
Keynote or Powerpoin because we
would have had to keep sending it to
one another to keep it up to date.
