I'm in a group of 3 with my class mates working on a slasher film opening with DOM ELLIS and DECLAN WILLIAMS and on this blog you will see the research planning and production aspects of the film of which we are producing which had the working title of Black Nightmare.

Q6 Technology

What have you learned about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

To produce the films that we are making in school non of this would happen without the technology we have these days, people 20 or 30 years ago could not even imagine the amount of technology which is available to us now as back then. The Technology we use to create our film opening is as followed;
(this is a vodcast of this post)





  • Apple Mac's
  • Blogger 
  • Youtube 
  • IMDB
  • Final Cut Pro
  • Video HD Camera's
  • Garage Band
Apple Mac's are the main key piece of technology that we use in our Media work as they hold all the things we need in terms of editing and finishing off and creating key parts of the film opening also the Apple mac's hold all the information we need for research which is all stored on the internet and
various blogs to help us.




Blogger is the place where all the information goes on how we progress and share what we have found in terms of research and the process of making some footage of the putting together of our film openings also all the vodcasts and podcasts of how the process and coarse is going.





Youtube is a very good and useful place to get video clips
to compare and to post video's of how the progress of the film making is going also we can share and embed previous video's of what are relevant to the subject for example video's of already successful slasher film openings


IMDB is the place which provides the most relevant information for film making and what sorts of things from old already made films, IMDB is a online website which lets you look up any film or director from any t
film and shows you the cast. This is ideal for when we are assessing or analysing past film opening's.

Final cut pro is where the footage of the filming gets edited. This is the sort of technology that the pro directors and production company's use for the major films in the world wide industries. It just shows how the world has been subjected to digitalisation and it benefits the people like us who do not have a lot of funding to produce the massive smash hit films.

HD Video camera's that we use to shoot the footage for our film openings are so high tech that major film producers didnt even use them about 10 years ago and they are more advanced than the one's they used back then. They provide us with an endless amount of opportunity to shoot the key footage and right frames to put our film openings together



Garage Band although i have not used it fully yet i have seen the effects of it and seen enough clips of where the sound tracks from it can be applied to the film openings as a form of background music either diagetic or non diagetic and sometimes providing an audio bridge. This is useful for creating sounds rather than having to pay for a full band to play for your benefits.
