What I've learned from my preliminary and what I've learned about technologies. (Evaluation)

Since filming my preliminary, I have found out that if we do not have a plan for the day, things can go very wrong very quickly. This can also link to what I've learned about new technologies, if the equipment you are using is unfamiliar to you, then you will have trouble using it, that said, the new technologies created through technological convergence makes the whole process of filming a lot simpler, another thing I learned since my preliminary exercise.

What I've also learned since doing my preliminary is that not using all the necessary equipment, such as a tripod can drastically effect the outcome by making the shot shaky and have unwanted blurring. Again, this isn't as much of a problem with new technology as most of the time it goes unnoticed.

Editing software, as one example, Adobe Premiere Pro, shown above, is another thing that I have learned to use since my preliminary, where before, we only carried out basic editing such as cutting clips to make them fit. With my film, I had to use more complex aspects of editing, such as creating titles and adding effects. I have learned that a film/shot can be edited very simply and effectively using this technology, which benefits the editor to make their job easier.
