What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
With the world we live in today’s technology provides a far more effective method of communication than the communication that there would be without the use of technology. For film institutions their target is simple they want to produce film that will guarantee success and that is only possible by making use of advanced technology.  To be honest, when I started working on my media product, I didn’t know much. But in the process of making my credits I automatically learnt a lot. Firstly I learnt how to handle a tripod which I never used before. After using this I realized that it kept my camera straight and not shaky, also I could set it at the right height. The tripod helped me in steady paning and tilt shot. It allowed me to be more versatile with my camera like taking different kind of shots and angles. Hence, it brought a stable look to my film.
Before taking media studies I hardly use a DSLR before but I start getting to know about its functions and features through my media assignments, and so in my preliminary video I was pretty sure about everything.The use of my Canon 600D helped me to make HD videos with clear sound and bright colour as compared to ordinary cameras. Its 18 megapixel CMOS sensor, on screen feature guide and up to 3.7fps continuous shooting make my moviemaking easier.
 Other than that technology has helped me in the form of editing software used. I used Adobe CS6. It was a completely new experience for me and I enjoyed it a lot. Before editing, we were taught how to use this software by our teacher. I learnt how to cut videos, put transitions, improve the audio and video quality, use different effects, and make titles.  I used Any Video Converter for converting my rushes to MP4.
I make use of both computer and laptop. To be on a save side I make use of Universal Serial Bus (USB) so I can easily store and transfer my data to both computer and laptop. If I wanted to go somewhere, I can easily carry my laptop. Moreover it is not dependent on electricity like computer.
 Another very important technology is mobile phone which helped me to communicate with my actors, inform them at what time they are supposed to reach the location and how they should be prepared. It also allowed me to contact my teacher if I face any difficulty during shoot or wanted to consult her regarding anything related to my film. Moreover Android phones are more helpful as Facebook, What Sapp, Viber make communication with my teacher and actor more easier.  Networking site like Facebook is really helpful as I posted my film’s link there to get instant feedback. I even uploaded my film rushes on Vimeo. Google drive help me in making questionnaire and make it easier to be filled out by a large audience. I made use of different copyright sites to select a suitable instrumental music for my film.
 In our first class of media we were asked to make our blogs on WordPress, which introduce our self to the world. Here I post my assignments, all the research , pre-production, and post production work. I never used WordPress before and initially found it difficult, especially how to link or embed videos but working on my media product helped me to understand.
