In the production stages of creating our film we mainly used Garageband, Motion and Final cut pro to edit the rough cuts we had collected on the dv camera.
Motion was used specifically to create the titles for the film. Using a preset theme that allowed the titles to roll in, I was able to create titles that were compatible with final cut pro and could be inserted and laid on top of our footage. Motion was also used to create the most important title, the name of the film and was used to be able to control how !and each title was displayed.
Garage band was used to manage all sound that could be heard in our title sequence. All natural sound that we wanted to keep such as the laughing of the girls was removed from the footage and enhanced and editied using garage band. A song that we felt reflected a mood we wanted to convey was imported into garage band and edited to make fit exactly. We finally used garage band to mix the peices of music we created with the pre made sounds and result in a final, well edited soundtrack.
Final cut pro was the most significant (after the camera) technology used by group 24. Final cut allowed us to remove any unnecessary footage, order all useful frames and create a professional product. On final cut pro we were able to edit the rough cuts toheyher, and then enhance these clips using effects and filters. Finally, we used this software to collaborate our sound and footage to create the full product. After adding the production and distribution logos on to the beginning of the film, again using final cut pro, the product was complete. Through final cut pro we were then able to watch the product as a whole and adapt where necessary.
These three technologies were extremely useful in creating our product as they were all compatible with each other and meant that each section we created could be imported on to the next software in order to leave us with a successful product as a whole.
