7.) Throughout the process of constructing our introduction to a zombie horror film we considered a variety of technologies such as the internet, Blogger, iMovie and Garageband, each helping a great amount in the construction of our film. We gained the majority of our ideas through the internet; by accessing websites such as Youtube we were able to watch opening scenes of specific horror films to help broaden our thoughts. By regularly posting on our Blogger we could keep well on track of what had and needed to be done. iMovie was the main programme that helped bring our whole film together. After importing our video footage into the programme iMovie then allowed us to edit video clips, add titles, add music and add effects like transitions, basic colour correction etc. The creation of our audio was done using Garageband. We could import and edit pre-recorded dialogue and create and edit our backing track with the use of its virtual software instruments.
These different technologies helped us be more creative throughout the process of constructing our film. For example, the internet gave us a wide range of options when deciding on the genre of our horror film. iMovie helped us with our creativity as it listed a variety of effects that we wouldn’t ordinarily think of using, giving us the option to play around with different ones to find out which we preferred. Garageband gave us the ability to create our own soundtrack/music to match with the action taking place in the film and by giving us a broad amount of choice this helped us be more creative.
Each technology helped us exhibit our film. Particularly with Garageband as we were able to choose where and when we wanted the audience to mainly concentrate on, for example, the music would build up whenever there was intense action. iMovie gave us the ability to control our film at such ease; because you can see single shots you can then cut of seconds without causing any problems and it makes it fit well. On Blogger we were able to analyse and read over our ideas and with using the internet this meant we could improve our previous ideas by researching specific topics without removing our previous thoughts of Blogger.
9.) Specific things throughout the planning of our film I mainly contributed in were the planning of our pitch; I visited possible locations for our film and completed recee sheets, planning of the script, I got one of the two actors from our film, the test shots, make-up design sheet and narrative research. During the production process of our film I took part in filming and contributing my ideas and thoughts on shot types, angels etc. In the post production stage I helped in editing by importing our video footage and soundtrack into iMovie and from there adding transitions, effects and the titles. I also regularly updated the blog with our old and improved ideas and when we did particular activities or tasks.
