Evaulation part 6- what have you learnt about technologies from your media project

We used a DSLR camera to film everything in our title sequence, even the photos that were taken, although we used two different cameras for each with my Nikon being used to take the photos as mine had an manual focus option Ben's for the filming but this didn't have a manual focus only working on auto focus meaning we had to be careful with our film otherwise it could have lost focus on what we wanted rendering the film useless and waste time on re-shots.  

Although we did not use a dolly or Steadicam our group may have benefited form the use of one as they would have been easier to move around with minimal shaking, we instead improvised attaching the camera to the top of a tripod and carrying it by the handle this did reduce shaking but not as much as I feel a dolly or Steadicam would have.

We used Final cut pro as our editing software for our video and Logic pro to create the music both of which I had used before but only for basic drag and drop, I had never added text to a film during it before so that was a new process for me, and I had only used Logic pro once before so I wasn't 100% sure on how it worked.
