CRITICAL REFLECTION 4

How did you integrate technologies in this project?

SOFTWARE

I used Adobe After effects CC app to make my production company introduction 'sinister cuts', all the credits and texts in my opening sequence. It had a wide variety of fonts to choose and experiment from.

software

I used Final cut pro to edit my preliminary task, preliminary task bloopers, interviews, focus group videos, opening sequence bloopers and opening sequence.

software

For the music 'Tonight, you belong to me' in my opening sequence I used Youtube to mp3 converter. I even downloaded some special effects sound for a dramatic feel from youtube only. Youtube has a large variety of sounds to pick from and it was convenient to choose any sound of my choice.

Hardware

For the lighting I used a professional LED photo studio shooting light. This allowed me to dim the lights and adjust according to the needs of my scene.

For all the behind the scenes pictures I used an S9+ galaxy Samsung phone.

For my camera I used a Canon 5D mark 4 DSLR. This gave me a very high quality content to work with. It was convenient for me to use as I shot everything handheld.

SD card to store all my raw footage. Sandisk 64 GB. This gave me plenty of storage to shoot and keep all my extra footage.

HARDWARE

I conducted all my research and blogs on my laptop, MacBook Pro.

I used my Samsung desktop computer to edit on as Final cut pro was installed in it with other important sound effects already downloaded which I could use.

I used Blogspot.com for all my blogs. It is easy and quick to use.

Google forms for my questionnaire surveys from which I just had to copy the link and then share it to others.

Prezi for my critical reflection 2 which took a lot of time as the site made my laptop work slower but it looks very professional and presentable so I went ahead with it

ONLINE

Youtube for posting the interviews, preliminary task bloopers, music for my opening sequence, searching for music and critical reflection 1. I posted them all on private mode and copied the link to post it on my blogs.

Wikipedia for my research work, for instance audience theories. It gave me plenty of information to understand many topics.

Online

I used photo grid to make my mood boards. It is a collage maker which helped me put all the pictures together.

I used the internet for pictures and research to put on my blog in which safari was my main web browser.

ONLINE

Instagram and WhatsApp to advertise about my questionnaire survey and encourage others to fill in. This helped me reach a wide audience as people are more willing to answer if it's convenient.
