2. IMAC
This is a picture
of me using the
imac at school
During the construction of our thriller we learnt how to use different
types of technology. We used this to make our thriller as interesting
and as realistic as possible.
One of the main pieces of technology that we used was the imac.
The imac was the most common piece of technology that we used.
This was because the imac had all the programs that we needed to
edit and make our thriller. image of
This is an
the imac that we
have been using that
has all the programs
on in that we used to
construct are thriller.
3. Mobygratis.com
We downloaded three different tracks from mobygratis to use at
different tracks from mobygratis to use at different stages for our
thriller. When going on this site, we had the chance to choose from a
selection of tracks that would be suitable for our thriller. We had all
agreed on the tracks we wanted for our thriller once we done this we
requested a license and once this has been approved we was able to
add the music to our thriller we done this by downloading it to the
timeline on final cut express.
This is the website
moybgratis which we
used to download
music for our thriller.
4. Blogger
Blogger was the website which we used to post everything that we
have learnt the process of what makes a thriller. I used Blogger as a
diary and wrote all the things we done. Every time we learnt
something new we had to update it on to our blogs to show the exam
the process of contraction our thriller, to improve on our grades we
added photos, films ect to show different types of technology. We
also analyzed films, thriller openings, music, mise en scene,
characters, setting and the audience and wrote this on our blogs to
make it more interesting.
This is a screen shot of my
blog this is what I used to
chart my progress of my
thriller coursework.
5. You tube
We also used you tube when researching thrillers and up loading are
priminarlary task/and our thriller then we then transferred it onto our
blogs. We also used you tube to analyze thriller openings and past
students work and we learnt a lot to help us with our own thriller.
This is what we put our
thriller onto so other people
can see our thriller and see
if they liked it.
6. Live type
During the making of our thriller we also used live type for the titles
and the names of the people in our thriller were made using this. We
used live type to make our thriller ident as well and make it realistic
like a real film company. The font that we used throughout the whole
thriller was “cracked”.
This is the program that
we used to make the tiles
that would go onto our
film.
7. Camera
The camera which we used to film was Canon Md101. this
helped us film all the different parts of our thriller which we
needed. We used different types of shots in our film like
long, short shots, close up and mid shot.
These images are from the camera
that we used to film are thriller below
is us filming and the camera is filming
me getting killed.
8. Surverymonkey.com
We used surveymonkey.com to get audience research. before filming we asked about
the target audience. We compose a questionnaire for them to fill out on survey
monkey and below are the results. We asked them the following questions about
thrillers:
Are you a male or female?
Do you enjoy thrillers?
What is the best aspect of a thriller?
How many times do you go to the cinema in a month?
Where do you watch films from?
How old are you?
What are your favorite thriller films?
This is the website we
used to put our
questionnaire onto it and
this is the audience feed
back that we received.
9. Final cut express
We also used final cut express to edit our thriller. This was important
because it helped us to make our thriller by being able to upload it,
and the pieces that we filmed and be able to add transitions, effects
and music on to the timeline . This was an important piece of
technology used in making our thriller. To use this we had to upload
our video from the camera, add effects and transition. By using this
we have learnt that we are able to add different effects to a thriller
and make it look realistic and real.
This is the program that
we used on the imac
that we used to edit our
thriller and bring all the
part of the film together.
10. Google.com
We use google to look up different types of thrillers and
we use this to look into different websites that would help
us with constructing our thriller for example the music
sites and the thriller openings.
11. Mobile phones
We used mobile phones to take pictures of the location
that we were going to be filming are thriller at and the
actors and actresses to show the examiner. We took the
photos and uploaded them on our blogs to show this.
We used mobile phones to
send pictures over of the
location of our thriller and
so we would know where
we are meeting each other
to film. Above is the location
of our thriller and we took
this picture with our
phones.
12. Bluetooth
We used Bluetooth to transfer the images and photos from
our phones to the imac’s so we can upload them onto our
blogs without any problems.
This is what we used to send photos
from our phone to other phones in our
group we also used this to send work
form the imacs to our phone and emails
to put on our blogs.
