Evaluation Activity 6

Technologies we used

while constructing our Media film we encountered a number of different technologies which had a number of different programs and equipment we had never necessarily used before.

Some of us in the group had never used a camera before, or more accurately, used a camera to record and make a film.

the camera was fairly simple to use and used a tape to record and store our images and film footage, as opposed to a digital camera where the footage would be saved digitally on a memory stick.

The iMac was possibly a vital piece of equipment where we gathered the footage we filmed and put it together using programs to eventually produce our media film. on the iMac we used programs such as iMovie HD, Photoshop, iTunes, and the internet.

We used the internet a lot during the construction of our film, especially on our blog where our work is posted.

To upload the fooage from our camera, which was stored on a casset tape, we had to plug the camera into the iMac, open iMovie HD, then import the footage

Picture of a tripod

We used the tripod every time we filmed in order to ensure that the camera did not shake as well as ensuring that our film looked some what professional. the tripod made it possible to easily pan a shot if needed as well as making it easier to position the camera at different angles and heights without the camera shaking.







Use of iTunes and iMovie HD
