CCR- How did you integrate technologies - software, hardware and online
Research before
Google and Ecosia was the main place we got our information from, I used Ecosia for most the research but sometime uses Google due the algorithm being more advantages. I also use google to get certain images.
YouTube was such a useful services and was the best place for researching film clips or different types of films. I used youtube as a way to further understand psychological thrillers.Our title is uploaded to YouTube so i used youtube to embed into Wix and other CCRs.
IMDB, (International Movie Data Base) was good to fact check on for things like the specific genre, release dates. IMDB help me find more out about the films and further insight, this helped me understand more of what my opening title should look like and developing my understanding for title sequences.
Pinterest, was the main source of were i found different kinds of photos for either the poster or for the moodboards and images to put on the blog. I found it very useful, due to it suggesting images related on the image i had clicked and gave me alot of options to chose fro,.
Netflix was great to either watch the whole of a film or the opening sequence. I could type into the search bar 'psychological thriller and toads of films would come up and it was easy to go from there. It was good if i needed/wanted to watch the whole film because youtube would only let me watch certain short clips of films.
IPhones and Macs and IPads to do the research on. IPhones were used for taking photos or sending a quick messages. Macs were for watching clips or googling or finding information and Iside who used her Ipad instead of a mac did this as well.
Outlook and SnapChat were are top ways of communicating. SnapChat we would use between each other and outlook to contact cast as emails are more formal plus i don't think any of the teachers have snapchat.
Test shoot, we completed a test shoot on all of our iphone's. Mine is an 11 i think Iside's and Vita's are the same. We planned to film what the flashback would look like. We used the Iphones to film on then we used a dodge video editor called Plus Movavia which Vita used to edit the flashback together on.
