6) What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
During the process of our media product, I was assigned as the director. Within the editing suit we assisted the editor as he used technologies such as Final Cut Pro, we were able to improve the shots that we had filmed by using the software and we were able to portray conventions of thriller and going against typical thriller conventions.

In the filming process we encountered some difficulty which was a benefit on our behalf as we learnt from the mistakes we made, which gave a variety of shots to choose from in the editing suit. We first started by filming our preliminary task, this proved to be more difficult than expected because we had difficulties setting up the tripod and keeping it steady. Another problem we didn’t realise is that our group had recorded a preliminary task which we then discovered had broken the 180degree rule. Which meant we had to film all over again we did our preliminary task about three times before we got it right.

Other technologies that we used were blogger, youtube, photoshop, scribd, bubbl.us, cloud, yahoo, facebook, these were all were vital for the creation of our product for example blogger was useful to us as we were able to upload our progression, research and final product on it, i have learnt ow to upload data, change information, join blogs together and various other things just from using this software.

With the use of youtube i have learnt how to upload videos, embed them unto other sites this was very useful to us as it allowed a wider range of audience.

Photoshop was a very useful piece of technology as it allowed me to change images to suit me by cropping them, contrasting and the colour of the images.

Scribd was a software that i had used many times it basically made the work i do look up to a good standard as it is well presented.

I used bubbl.us for the brainstorm of our product it was very useful to me as it was a sufficient way of doing a mind map of our initial ideas and how they had evolved from then on.

Yahoo helped as with most things we need an email address to be able to sign up for various software's such as blogger,scribd, sound cloud etc.

The use of facebook made it easier for us to target our audience as it is a social networking site, i was able to link our blog to facebook so our audience can be able to access it and view our product.
