Evaluation: part 7 What i have learned about the technologies we used to create our product.

For the filming of the sequence we used Ben's DSLR for the filming this was quite challenging as Ben's camera didn't have manual focus  meaning that we had to make sure that I was in focus for all the shots,for the photos we used Michael's DSLR which had manual focus but unfortunately it couldn't record videos despite this they where both relatively simple to use, the only problems that we had with them was the camera shake as we had no Steadicam as it was not available for use on the days we needed it meaning that Michael had to hold the tripod and walk with it so some things we had to re-shoot due to camera shake.

For the editing Ben used final cut pro, we chose Ben to edit as he had the most experience with it but unfortunately he wasn't very experienced at final cut pro in the beginning, he got better at it the more he used it as the final cut of our sequence shows, meanwhile me and Michael worked on the music at first the music wasn't quite what we wanted so we scrapped it ans started again and what we ended up with was the perfect musical score to accompany our sequence.

Overall the technologies we used helped us to create a great final outcome of our product the only thing that I think would have improved our video is if we had got the Steadicam as it would have meant that we wouldn't have wasted time re-shooting  things because of the camera shake.
