At the beginning of our project we first started some research using Google and YouTube where we looked at the kind of conventions utilized in teen films; so here I learned how to gather relevant information and also how to present them using programs like Slide share and Prezi. Using Slide share I learned how to first add my information onto a PowerPoint, then I created a Slide share account where I uploaded the PowerPoint then embedded it into the Blogger blog. I also displayed some of my research on Prezi where I learned how to edit the transitions between slides and also position them so that they go in a order that makes sense.
Planning our film:
When we started to plan our filming we used time toast to present and organize them - here I learned how to change the dates on the time toast to effectively place our planning in a correct order that would keep us on track with our filming deadline.
After filming:
We then looked at our sound options for music and looked at the Creative Commons website where I discovered that the music that we download in connection to this site would escape the whole copyright law so it would be better to use for our film. Through this site we used Soundcloud to download our song choices; from this I learned that you can't download the exact song because the majority of the songs on it are other people's remixes. To edit the our footage we used the Final Cut Pro program on apple mac to put together the clips in an order that utilized match cuts and other editing techniques. From using this program I learned how to speed up scenes, shorten the length of scenes and even add sound onto a scene to fit the motion.
