Keeping Up With CCR - Part 4

“Dearest gentle reader,” - Bridgerton 

Last but not least, we have gotten to the last question of it all. In this question, it looks for what technologies I used or even whether I used technology. Part of the question is:

1. Discuss any technologies you used. 
2. Discuss hardware - cameras, lighting.
3. Discuss software - editing, planning
4. Discuss how you used these technologies

Well, in a world where technology has become a great part of our everyday lives, the answer is yes, I did use technology. I basically took part in all the four parts of the questions, my group and I used different cameras, as well as various software to edit the different parts of our film opening. As discussed in a previous blog, we used multiple camera equipment that we checked out from our school, and the equipment from one of our group members. Part of the hardware that was used was a Mark 4, DJI, and a tripod, using each of these elements helped to accomplish the look that was wanted. 

For example, this scene was done by having the camera on the tripod, and without it, it wouldn't have had the same meaning behind it and the same feeling. 

Furthermore, for the software that was used, we used Premiere Pro, Blender, and After Effects, all together to achieve the final product that we got. Without the use of all the apps, we wouldn't be able to get the product that we wished for, of having the VFX effects of the planet and graphics. Our graphics were mostly done in After Effects, and then to include it in the line edit it was imported into Premiere Pro. Blender helped with the VFX effects for the planet and the process was interesting, but the results were incredible.
