Question Six

"What have you learned about technologies from the process of constructing this product?"

Software allows the a greater production when it comes to producing BlindFire, such means of software such as Final Cut Express and Adobe After Effects were key in the final production that was delivered with BlindFire. Much of the continuity editing and speed shots would be non-existent nor would the use of music which help establish the conventions of our genre or the setting and class. Using Final Cut Express enabled myself and I learnt how to edited in a simple yet professional way, i learnt how to produce music and sound effects that played parallel with my film, i was able to included sound-bridges and special effects, and was even able to add special effects, Adobe after effects allowed myself to create our ident professional and effective standard. 

Hardware such as the Digital Camcorder, tripod and microphone gave myself the ability to create the physical substance for BlindFire. in using the digital camcorder it allowed for quick and easy shooting, where if there was a apparent problem we could play back and re-film, the Digital Camcorder didn't offer the greater professional shooting yet it was enough to produce BlindFire to the necessary standard. The tripod was important for many of our establishing shots and pans which are present throughout BlindFire, without the tripod many of these shots wouldn't be present or exist to a poor standard without a nice steady approach which the Tripod offers, the microphone wasn't used in the production of BlindFire as diagetic sound wasn't present, however it was used before and offered us to record conversations easily and clearly. the substance of the film was saved to a SD card and Tape, which made it easy to import the film onto final cut and adapt BlindFire. 

I was enabled to use the Internet to produce many mediums of presentation. I've used multiple web applications through the course of this project. Blogger made it easy to recorder and update progress in a diary like form through the use of blogs. I was enabled integrate and embed from other web apllication into my Blog, such as a Glog from Glogster, SpicyNodes, Prezi, Survey Monkey etc. Using Glogster was easy simple and straightforward in the production of my glog. Survey Monkey, on the other hand was very useful and gave me useful information from my target audience. YouTube enabled promoting my videos and offered an invaluable service. Uploading videos to YouTube can be shared to all people around the world and integrated to other sites for ease of access. There is also no loss of quality, as long as the video has been exported properly.
