E6: What have I learned about technologies from the process of constructing the product?

In this video I (attempted) to evaluate question 6 about the digital technologies I've learned about from constructing the final product. I struggled to say everything I wanted to in 3 minutes, so here is a more detailed rundown of what I actually learnt about the technologies I mention in the video:

Blogger: I uploaded a lot of photos to my blog to start off with, and I learned that I needed high quality photos in order for them to look more aesthetically pleasing on my blog, as they had to be set at the largest size setting. I also used a few Prezis to make my blog more interactive and fun, so I had to find out how to embed these into my blog and also learn how to actually use Prezi to my advantage in the first place, i.e what information I could display through these and what went better as another format.

Camera and equipment: I was not great at camerawork when I started the course, and tripods scared me with how complicated they looked. It turns out tripods are pretty easy to set up but I had to learn how to do that and also how to use the lever to make a tracking shot. The Lumix camera I used cut off the shot as soon as I pressed the shutter, so I learnt to leave a few seconds before and after the action so I had more footage to work with when editing. 

Drone: The drone was an extra asset in filming, I got really professional footage from it and also had a lot of fun, but it took a lot of learning and trial shots to get the material I wanted. I also had to look up how and when I could use the drone because of local laws and safety laws.

iPhone: I have an iPhone and use it every day, but filming and editing on it was quite new to me so I had to follow a few tutorials and help pages about iMovie to learn how to use it efficiently for the actual opening sequence. I also learned that the sound recording quality on iPhones is better than the camera I used, so I recorded Foley sound of the character breathing and her footsteps as another option to use in post-production.

YouTube: I've never uploaded a video to YouTube before starting the course, so I had to make a channel and read up on how to upload a video correctly before I did. Over my planning and research and mainly construction, I made a few vlogs and extra videos, so by the time I'd made the final production I knew exactly what I was doing. Copyright is something YouTube takes very seriously which I learned with my first vlog, where I tried to add a song in the background but had to change to copyright-free music before it would allow me to upload.
