6)What have I learnt about technologies in the process of constructing my film sequence?

Throughout the process I have been able to learn many new skills involving the camera. I have learnt what a high and low angle are and what their effect is on the audience. I have learnt the importance of keeping the camera steady. I also have learnt that making a title sequence isn't as easy as I thougth it would be. Before I started I didn't know anything about final cut pro. The most I had used to make a short movie was movie maker, so using final cut pro has been a challenge. I had to learn how to add all the effects onto the sequence. We used effetcts like fade in fade out which allows the shot to come out smothly instead of jumping onto the screen. To show that the sequence was a thriller I had to learn hw to use colour correcter 3 to turn the text into red. This was a challenge as it was hard to make the red excatly the same in each shot. To make the red stand out we changed all the shots into black and white. I did this by inserting a tint ont the clips. I also had to use how to add an vignette into some shots so the focus was only on the shadow as some shots we ended up filming a brickwall or a football, we didn't notice at the time however an audience member would pick up on this. I also had to learn how to use garage band to create our soundtrack. I found garage band really easy to use. The only tough bit was finding the right sounds we wanted for the soundtrack! I had to learn how to precision editing. I did this by using slow motion to create effect. It allowed the audience to capture more detail. I also used slow motion on some of the whipsers which meant it sounded scary and not human. As i was the editor for The Red Book, I felt like i edited it to the best of my ability. Considering at the start i didn't even know how to insert a video, I now feelk confident with editing. There is still a lot  I could learn, however I am happy with the editing I did in The Red Book.
