What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
1. The usage of the video camera, for the filming: I personally wasnt in charge of the cinematography in my group, but Harry Read, my colleague in charge explained to me the different features it has, from zoom to SFX. However, the editing is best done on a software that was purposely made for these video cameras.
2. The MACs are ideal for this task. With a program called iMovieHD, we can cut out the outtakes, add in some new tracks to set the mood and transitions to ease the continuity of the story. My colleague, Oliver Rossetti was in charge of the editing, so I asked him a few questions on the different features it has, including audio, titles, transitions and clips. I learnt that, by combining all these together, a realistic sequence can be created for a specific audience [in our case, the genre was thriller - and target audience was 13-4x years old].
How did digital technology enable you to develop creatively?
And are there examples of the technology obstructing or preventing your creative flow?
Using the software iMovieHD, as previously mentioned, we could creatively make a scene more dramatic and suspensful. For example, in the interrogation scene, we added a soundtrack that was made using the GarageBand program, which enabled us to generate a sound that would drain out the dialogue and intensify the actions of the villains. We managed to create a sound with an incredible amount of drama that accurately align with the actors body language. And I do not recall being held back creatively by any kind of technnology, we put our ideas together and there was no problems in the pre-production and production whatsoever.
