Evaluation Question 6: What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

To construct the opening to our thriller we used two technologies, Final Cut Pro and Garage Band.

We used final cut pro to do the block of our work. We used it to edit all our shots, and arrange them in a sequence. We'd become fairly accustomed to final cut pro as we'd had a lot of practice, with our story boards, our own edits of 'the killers',  our prelim and finally the final piece. Final cut pro was easy to use once you knew how everything worked and posed very useful especially when it came to adding the title sequences as we could do it on final cut pro and drag it in. I was useful as we could edit the speed, transitions, font size and colour all on Final Cut Pro

Garageband was also easy to use as we all had previous experience with it, We went through the programme and went into the different genres of music and the instruments used in the style. We dragged sequences in and overlapped them till we came up with a piece that suited our opening and that we were happy with.

I personally found both pieces of software easy and fun to use, i thoroughly enjoyed using them to work on the software as they didn't pose any problems and helped us to complete everything we wanted to.
