Question 4:
An audience is a group of people who critisize the work of producers, who produce different types of media such as films and magazines. Our target audience was targeted at younger viewers such as teenagers because we knew that thriller films (our chosen genre), was very popular amoungst the younger viewers.
question 6
During production we used a range of technologies .During the actual filming we used digital cameras and lights and then when editing we used the mac's and went on Premiere Pro and Adobe After Effects.When filming we used a Canon digital camera to capture our title sequence.We had to make sure we brought the battery and sd card or else the camera wouldn't work.The camera was easy to use once we did a tutorial on it and we pretty much just pressed the on button and sometimes zoomed in or out.When putting all the shots together and trimming them down we used premiere pro.On premiere pro we did not only grab shots from our video drive and import them into premier pro and then put it in order but also made the shots smaller so the time of the sequence wouldn't be more than 3 minutes .We also did some colour grading by going on the tab at the top called colour and then adjusting the brightness and saturation and making the shots either blue toned or yellow toned on the colour wheel on many of the scenes and added some effects to create smoother transitions by clicking on effects then transitions,.Another thing we did is add some diegetic and non-diegetic sound by going on the internet and looking for non-copyrighted music ,download them onto our video drive and import them on premier and also making some of the background noise in some shots louder by click on the sound lines under the shot footage and dragging the sound line up.
In after effects i created idents for my production company and distribution company called impact studios and zodiac productions.Me and my group also created credits and the main title on after efects by typing in what we wanted to be on the screen,chanding the font to Travelling_Typewriter in bold and then using the animation for text called Jiggy blured like in the movie seven and making the text white.Here is an image of the idents :
The camera was very useful because without out it there would be no title sequence to present.The camera captured every crucial part in the title sequence is making our storyboard come to life with actual moving images.It was very creative as we could change how we wanted to shot something like doing bird eye view or doing a close up and over the shoulder shots.
After effects on the mac's again useful as it created the idents which are at the beginning of the title sequence and also the credits which is the main reason for title sequences.It had a small paft of the creativity of the sequence but still played a huge role in at as we were able to make the credits move in a way that allows the audience to feel as though there watching a thriller.
The best technology i have found most valuable would be using premier pro on the computer because i already knew how to work a camera a bit but i didn't know how to edit at all and so i have not only discovered and learnt how to use a new software but personally i think masted it and did more than i thought i could.What i have learned about the important role of technology in the production stage is that you could make a title sequence without it and if they weren't invented life today would be different.Also that something as simple as a web app can make a big difference.

On Monday we added the rest of our title credits to our sequence using adobe after effects.We did this by looking at Task 34 and looking at the order of the credits and then adding names in that order.We used the font Travelling_Typewriter in bold and to make it look more thriller like we used the animation for text called Jiggy blured like in the movie seven.

Evidence of editing Rough Cut
When First editing our rough cut we cut most of the shots down as there was a lot of them and they were quite long.We turned a 3 and a half minute title sequence to a just under two minute title sequence.We also replaced some shots we originally thought were good but found even better ones .
