Working on my own throughout this project has put pressure on me to make sure everything is right, and make sure that I don't mess anything up, because I would only have myself to blame. Therefore this lead me to take a lot of consentration and care into the making my media film and fully understanding how to use the different softwares.
The care that I took into making sure I knew my way around, Final Cut Pro, Soundtrack Pro and Photoshop really has paid off looking back at my final edit. Without my editing techniques I would not have been able to the film what it is now. I have been able to create suspence and a tense atmosphere through music and lighting, which I originally did not have in my original shots. Thanks to the editing softwares I was able to re-create the ideas that I had going on in my head. I did however have a few limitations where I could not present the exact image that I had, based on the sounds on soundtrack pro, but I worked about that and created something I am a lot happier with now than my first idea.
Apart from my gained knowledge on the softwares, I have also learnt about sounds that can be picked up through the camera, and how to capture sound that you do want, and get rid of sound that you dont particularly want or need. Aswell with the camera shooting, I have gained more confidence with my recording, and I am now willing to try new things instead of keeping to the same traditional sort of takes on things that would guaratee things to be 'safe'.
All in all, this the preliminary task, I have gained for knowledge and more confidence with the technologies and camera shooting to make sure I can create the best media product I potentionally can.
