Creative use of technology

In our video, the main use of technology we will use is the editing programs for our video and our images for the digipak and advert. We used the lens cover switch on the camera during our video to create the opening scenes through the forest, as this records the opening of the lens and then the mass of light an slow focusing which fit really well with the opening of our song. we also made use of the colour corrector tool in final cut to stop one clip looking too green and we also made use of the motion keyframes, to animate various video movements and text movements. We also altered the opacity of various clips to make things fade in and out to make the transitions easier than very blunt and short. In our digipak we used various transformations to warp the text to get it to fit on the tree, we also used various techniques to colour the band's name and various techniques to make the writing readable. On the magazine advert we made use of the leaf brush in photoshop and then turn into black and white to create an interesting background and to make it more interesting than one plain colour.
