Software used for the Ancillary Tasks

I used Adobe Flash CS4 to create the website, I had used action script code to create a scroll bar on the cast and crew page also I had created a movie clip of a gallery that moves to the left. I had imported images of each of our meida work such as the magazine and posters. I had created buttons to link to the other pages. Also created an animation of a gold ring spinning. I've found this software quite easy to use as I had to create an interactive website for A2 ICT. Therefore with my experience I had no problems when it came to creating a website for media.
This is a print screen of me using the software:



Adobe Photoshop CS4
I used Adobe Photoshop CS4 to create my movie poster. I have used this software during AS Media Studies so I know where each tool is and what it does. I was able to edit and create a professional poster by manipulate the image, add extra layers, edit the image, re sizing, add titles, borders and get the colour scheme right.
Below is a SCREENSHOT of me using the software

Microsoft PowerPoint 2010
I used Microsoft PowerPoint to create my 50 slides of analysing real media teasers .


Adobe Fireworks CS4
I used Adobe Firework CS4 software to create my empire magazine. I have never used this software as I used Adobe Photoshop CSC4 mostly. But I do prefer using fireworks. I was able to create a magazine with no struggle. I was able to manipulate images, change the text font and colour..

Imovie
We were able to import our footage onto imove using the Apple Mac and to start the edit process. Imovie is a great software to be using for the purpose of editing. I was able to crop, zoom, cut footage and import sound. Applying colour correctors for example applying green onto the grass of where the character is lying on the ground. Also applying sea blue colour to give audience a realistic feel of the beach scene. We later transferred this footage using a memory stick on to Adobe After Effects CS4 to add titles and finishing touches.


Garageband
I had used this software before during AS Media Studies, therefore it was no problem using it this year. I had found suitable sound that will create my teaser more effective, the sound was manipulated by editing it, changing the speed etc.


Adobe After Effect CS4:
I have never used this software, but with the help from youtube.com and Adobetv.com. I was able to teach myself and understand what the software included.

JVC Digital Video Camera
I helped one my friends film her film production; I was gaining more extra skills at using the camera. I felt this task did help me a lot as I got to understand what shots were most effective, I used JVC Digital Video Camera GR- 860 to collect footage.

JVC Tripods to make sure all footage was as still and smooth as possible to create an industry standard, professional production.
This is me using the camera and tripod during filming.

Hardware: HP Scanjet 4070 Photosmart Scanner it was used to uploading storyboards, sketches. Before uploading the post,
