1. What have you learnt about
Technologies from the process
of constructing this product?

2. Technology Used:
Filming
• Canon DSLR 650 EOS
• Flashing Light
• Flipcams during our research period.
• Omit Tripod
• Camera Lens'
Editing
• iMovie
• Apple Macbooks
• Final Cut Pro

3. Pros and Cons
Pros
• we learned how to use iMovie which helped during our
focus groups and mainly through out our whole research
process.
• We learned how to get certain shots by changing
camera angles and moving the tripod around.
• We learned how to used different tools and professional
techniques which helped during editing within Final Cut
Pro.
Cons
• it was hard to get a smooth pan whilst using the tripod
due to the unstable movement whilst turning the handle.
• it was difficult exporting the footage due to the
computer not fully co-operating and being rather slow.

4. whilst filming we learned
how to focus on specific
objects and blur people
from a background but
learning this was not easy
as we would have to focus
the camera before
shooting a scene which
was time consuming but
from the experience of
repeatedly doing it we
finally got used to
adjusting the lens which
allowed our productivity to
be much faster towards
the end.
whilst working with the
Canon DSLR 650 EOS
camera we managed
to control the focus and
we managed to create
different shots but due
to the tripod it was hard
to create specific
movements such as
simple panning left and
right due to the not so
smooth movement. This
led us to use hand held
shots which worked out
better.

5. Programs
• we used final cut pro to edit the raw footage
which allowed us to manipulate the raw footage
and create a more professional looking opening.
• Using Adobe Fireworks to create the logos
allowed us to get a professional finish to the logos
which made them look the part within or
opening.
• iMovie was used during our research which
allowed us to edit small videos from our focus
group

6. Camera
• Using the Canon DSLR 650 EOS to film scenes
in different set ups which gave us high
quality shots and great camera angles.
• using the flip cameras would have been
inappropriate to use for our final footage
due to lack of quality as it lacked the clarity
and wouldn't have given a professional
finish to our opening
