What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

The technology's I have learnt about while making our Thriller have been digital cameras, Mac Airs, and the right and wrong cables to use when connecting the two. I have been using the digital camera to film the entire thriller as shown in some photos beforehand. The camera is simple enough to turn on, off and start recording, I had no trouble with getting it to work once I found out how to record and play back. The only trouble we had was that when playing back you had to make sure the video was right at the end before starting recording again. Though I had no trouble with this when Ben filmed the graveyard scene he accidentally filmed over previous footage that we took in Cannock it left a gap between the death of the Vietcong and when he returns to the other soldier. Though Ben and Sam initially did the editing I learnt how to use my Mums Mac Air in such a way that I could add effects, sounds and visual effects to the video. The only problem I found with this was that for every computer you need a different type of wire, which brings me to the next point. The wires were the biggest problem to come to terms with it took me three days to find the right wire to get the camera compatible with the computer. Other than this though I was able to learn a lot about the camera and editing which should help me in later productions.
