"Quick bullet pointed list of the technical skills that you have developed during the course of the AS year. Remember to include filmmaking and all aspects of editing and sound."
Using a JVC camera with a tripod to film our 3 minute opening, along with my group, we used a vast range of shots to make our opening look professional. These shots include:
 |
| Motion |
- First Person POV
- Wide Shot
- Tracking Shot
- Close-up
- Mid-Shot
Though these types of shots were new to me, I was already familiar with using a video-camera at GCSE, however at AS I leaned how to use the following: Final Cut Pro, Motion and Soundtrack Pro.

| Soundtrack Pro |
With Final Cut Pro I learned how to:
- Import/Export footage
- Place it in a chronological sequence
- Trim clips/sound
- Add transisitions, effects and the title sequence
Despite using iMovie on many occasion, I found Final Cut far more technical. Though this felt challenging at times, especially deadline day, it felt rewarding when the final product was complete. With Soundtrack Pro, I learned how to compose a score for my 3 minute opening by mixing up a string of samples and beats. With Motion, I was able to create an ident for my fictional distribution company. This involved experimenting with transitions and title movements.
