Question 4

PREMIERE PRO

Adobe Premiere Pro is a media technology that has been

used in the construction of the media product, the trailer.

Premiere Pro was used to edit the film footage which we had

obtained and to construct our film trailer.

Premiere Pro is a hard program to master. It took a while for

me to get to grips with the different shortcuts etc.

SCREENSHOTS OF MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES

The timeline on premiere

A screenshot of the main editing screen on premiere.

The finished product on Photoshop

This is evidence of the photo being cropped and the brightness adjusted.

ADOBE PHOTOSHOP

Adobe Photoshop is another media technology that has been

used in the creation of the media product, Adobe Photoshop was

used during the production of my film poster.

Photoshop is basically a program that allows you to edit images

and add special effects to it. I have used Photoshop to produce a

sort-of horror poster.

There are many techniques which I used to create a sense of

horror. I adjusted the brightness of the photo, I cropped out the

face of the model, and I made the background very dark.

There were many tools within Photoshop which I used to

create the poster. Firstly, I used the lasso tool in order to

crop out half the face of the stalker. I did this by

highlighting one section of the models face, and pressing

the delete button. This meant that I was left with half of the

models face.

Also, I used the crop tool. This was to remove the

unwanted background from the raw image.

ADOBE PHOTOSHOP

YOUTUBE

Furthermore another media product which I used

was YouTube. I used YouTube to upload the finished

trailer.

YouTube is a website where you can upload videos

to. As a group we uploaded the video to YouTube.

SURVEY MONKEY

The last media technology which I used to create

the media product was survey monkey. Survey

monkey is a website on the internet where you can

upload surveys and get other people to fill it out for

you

I uploaded a survey onto survey monkey in order to

find out whether the plot of the trailer was ok. I also

wanted to find out what people thought of the initial

idea of the trailer.
