TRANSCRIPT
Hardware.
A variety of hardware was used within the filming process, we used JVC Camcorders with attached microphones to capture video and sound, we also used tripods to get perfectly still shots, as otherwise all of the captured footage would look very cheap. A Fig Rigs was also used for panning shots.
SoftwareMany different software packages were used for example Final Cut Pro, Soundtrack Pro, Photoshop CS4, Camtasia and Adobe After Effects.
Final cut pro was the main software program used, we used it to edit all of our footage and also to add effects to our clips. By using this software I learned how to order clips and the importance of how ordering them completes a clip.
Soundtrack pro was used to add sound effects to our piece, for example the non-diegetic sounds that were played during the flashback sequence. From this I had learned the effect of using music to add mood to a clip
Software 2After effects was used to create the Candi Media Ident. This showed how adding something as simple as an ident makes a clip look professional
Photoshop was only breifly used to create the background shown at the end of the film ( the same background used for this PowerPoint)
Camtasia was one of the most useful software’s we had used, it was used to capture image on the screen, and also to record ourselves analyzing our products.
MPEG Steam Clip was used to convert files that were in formats that were incompatible with the software they needed to be used on.
