{Evaluation} What new new skills have you learnt? What have you learnt from technology in this project?


In this project with out film i found that i developed many new skills and learnt quite a few things from it, from using new products from as little as the iMac to using new things to put in to our film such as the voice over. 

From the technical side then i learnt how to use 'iMovie' which was used on an 'iMac' which i also learnt to use. We were lucky enough to have a man in from Apple a few days before we started our projects as he showed us how to use the iMac's and how to use 'iMovie' on them, this was very useful as many of us had never used 'iMovie' before including me. 

We learnt how to cut and trim clips and edit things throughout the film and how to add in over the film, we also learnt how to use many transitions in the film that i particularly liked because they would smooth en out two clips which would have been put together which changes the focus of the audience as they wont pay as much attention to the jump in the shot. I also liked to use the blackout transition as when it went from one scene to another then it would show there is time in between as the scene would blackout. 

From this we learnt the simpest of things such as transfering pictures across to the film to cutting and editing the film and putting music in.

I also had lots of internet help on how to do different effects whilst using 'iMovie', and my teacher organised a 'Apple Training Day' with a professional technical advisor who knew what to show us and what to help us with whilst making our films.   


Also I learnt lots more Camera Shots & effects such as:

Cut Away

Dissolve

Deep Focus

Ellipsis

Eye-line Match

Fade In

Flashback

Dollying

And there were many more which helped me to produce this film.
