Evalution 7- Technologies

Part 7- What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

Throughout the pre-production/production/post-production we knew that we was going to use a DSLR for all of our filming. This decision was made because for example our first shot was of the news report and needed to be focused so using a DSLR on a tripod was appropriate.
We decided to use the Go-Pro camera for one particular shot which was the kidnapping shot where Dan puts a pillow case over the 'politicians' head, as we had never used go-pro we thought we would give it a try and it turned  out to be successful as by using the go-pro on the actors head it gave more of an effect and made it seem as if it was from his point of view. By using a tripod in shots it was easier to capture for example when the three anarchists were running I made the tripod low and placed it in a certain place so it only captured the bottom of their feet whist running past. In the process I learnt a lot about using a DSLR camera as I'd never really used one for filming before. Using blogger was something new to me as well. Something that was less successful for me was editing as Frankie took on that role whilst I done the majority of the cinematography.
