Pre production
Computer
The most prominent piece of hardware that we used in pre-production was a computer. we used our computers to conduct research into the areas of film that we needed to focus on for our opening title sequence. we also used the laptops to edit the first draft of our test shoot and communicate with members of our cast.
Iphone 12
One of the other pieces of hardware that we used in the Pre-Production phase is our Iphones. we used our Iphones to not online film the test shoot but also to take pictures and document areas of our journey along the way. our Iphones were also our primary source of communication throughout the process.
Hardware
Imovie
One of the main forms of software that we used in the pre-production stage of our title sequence was iMovie. we used the software iMovie to edit and cut down our first draft of our opening title sequence to test how our vision would initially translate onto the screen.
Software
Online
Snapchat
Snapchat was the main form of communication that my group used to communicate with each other during the planning stages. we used snapchat as it was an online form of communication that we all previously had and used and we felt it would be the most effective for everyone to use.
Blogger
The biggest online feature that we used during the pre-production phase was Blogger. We used blogger to document each step of the research journey in an easily accessible way. our blog has each step of our independant and group research/planning documented in one place so it makes it easy if we needed to look back at a specific area.
YouTube
YouTube was one of the most prominent online recourses that I used in the pre-production research stage of making our opening title sequence. I used YouTube to do my background research when we were in the very easily stages of creating our idea. I
looked up clips of movies that followed similar conventions to the idea for the opening title sequence I had. one we had the idea down we needed to look into the technicalities of creating the actual final product. in our original idea we had planned to have a scene in which the main character burns his hand. I used YouTube to do the back ground research by looking up tutorials on how to create a fake burn and taught myself how to use makeup to make a fake burn. I recorded the process of me learning how to make the fake burn on Blogger (another one of our online recources)
