Question 6

What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
I have learnt about a lot of new technologies I never knew before. For instance, the program ‘Adobe Premiere Project’ is the program we used to edit our film. This is a complicated program but as we got further in the project we was able to practice on it on the Preliminary Exercise, which enabled us to be more informed of the program. Also a lot of the camera shots were unknown to me at the start of the project but as we went on, the terms became more knowledgeable to me and we were able to a lot of these shots into our main task.

Question 7

Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
I feel that I have learnt how to pull off a lot, if not all the camera shots needed to complete our film. I have learnt this from my preliminary task because it was just a short exercise to practice on and it meant I could get used to what sort of shots to do and how to do them. Also, the preliminary exercise was useful for many other things to do with the main task for example, lighting, sound and the types of costumes our main task will need. This is our preliminary task which was a practice exercise to practice on the camera shots etc.

This image is of the location from our first scene involving the geek and the bully. We chose this location as there was space to take all the shots properly.






This is our camera in a toilet in a position to start recording. We placed it on top of some toilet roll to be able to get the right height to record.


This is our group using the computer to access the program adobe premiere pro. We are using this program so we are able to edit our opening sequence together.








This is me(zak) setting up the camera in one of our locations.

This is an image of one of our locations. It is in the school and this is where the beginning of our opening scene is placed.
