Research for #4 Question of CCR

Welcome back! We finally made it to CCR Question #4! Yay! Let's start planning it!

Question

How did you integrate technologies- software, hardware, and online - in this project?

Step #1- Script

My partner and I filmed on the iPhone 13. After our first day of filming, we noticed I had a shakey hand in some clips, so we had to refilm them. I found a gooseneck phone holder that helped me stabilize some shots. It also helped me film a more seamless and steady pan. All of my research and planning, including my schedule, was done on Blogger.com straight from my Google search engine. This allowed me to keep everything I need in a single location. To make our production company logo, my partner used Canva and drew it onto the platform with her apple pencil and 10th generation iPad. Because we drew the logo ourselves, the graphics and font choice were not limited to what Canva offers. To edit our film opening we used Clipchamp and ran it online though our Google search engine. We chose it becasue we've used it in the past and feel comfortable with it; however, it has many flaws. We have to open and close the program multiple times before actually opening it because it directs us to a blank screen instead of the project. Also, when you do open the software it takes a while to import all of the videos. A major issue with Clipchamp is that only 1 person can be working on it at once. Otherwise, it will tell you to keep refreshing the page to update your partner's changes. Once you do update it, your most recent changes are undone. We easily bypassed this by editing on one computer together, or editing one at a time. However, this significantly slows down the editing process. If I did this again, I would step out of my comfort zone and edit the film opening on another editing platform, like Adobe Express, to bypass these problems all together.
