6. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

From making this project I have learnt that by using different editing techniques to change and edit my movie I was able to make it suit my perspective of what I want it to look and run like. I lined up my movie clips and connected them together now I wanted it to run as a movie, and whether it needed any cutting to change the length. Then I was able to use the roller tool on ‘Final Cut’ to overlap my clips therefore changing the smoothness and making it run through without any random jumps. When I was filming, by using the tripod I was able to achieve perfect results of straight smooth lines and angles, smoothing the transitions from one shot to the other. For example, when I was filming the photos of the girls on the wall, by using the tripod I was able to make continuous transitions from photo to photo then down to the girl on the floor, allowing it to fit perfectly with the music. Whereas if I were to take the photos as stills and insert them they wouldn’t have built the tension as well as how I had imagined.
