evaluation activity 6

For the creation of the opening two minutes of mine together I used a lot of different software and hardware.
when i first started the planning the film i had never film done any filming before and .
 before or using video editing programme. since starting the filming and during the course i have learnt a lot of different camera angles and shots. in the editing we used adobe premier elements and to create the anamatic we used adobe flash
these are a few pictures of what equipment that we have used in the filming, production and editing parts of making the film.

the first picture i am going to post is the tripod, the tripod was there to help us create a smooth pan and to keep the camera still so that we had perfect shots  i had not used a tripod before but i learnt easily as they arent the hardest equipment to use

 

we also used the camera to film the camera was called DV1 and below are pictures of it from the front and from the back. there was another option of camera that we could have used but we opted for this one as it has a better zoom  and it was HD so we knew that it would produce a good quality picture which it did.

we used Adobe Premier Elements as it is a good editing software which is fairly straight forward to use and it gives it a professional look, it was good from my point of view as it I am an amateur as i was able to make it look professional.

We also used adobe flash which is the software that Will used to create the storyboard it the software allows  you to create short films, you can also draw pictures and it will fill in the frames. it worked well for our animatic as it gave a clear idea to the audience what we were trying to create and i think it came out well .

We got our title font from a website called dafont.com the font that we used is called chicken scratch we thought it worked well with the storyline of our horror film, the reason was that because the opening two minutes is set in the woods and the font looks like someone has carved letters into a tree. the font was not copyright.

We used paint to create some still shots it was a good tool to use as it is relatively easy to edit photos and it was quick, 

For the soundtrack will tried to make the music on garageband but we then found one on the internet and we thought that it fitted it perfect so we decided to go with that one. it was not copyright.

for the poster we used Photoshop it is quite an advanced software which allowed us to create a professional looking poster this allows the audience to get a glimpse at what the film is about and gets the audience thinking.
