What have you learnt about the technologies from the process of constructing this product?

Exploring iMovie and what it can do

Music plays a very important role in our production and I think we did well in choosing the the appropriate music. We used the song "Wake" by Linkin Park in the beginning, it matched the eerie vibe of the dream and it built up tension. We also used the song "Something in the Way" by Nirvana, it matched the moodines of the character perfectly.
To show what a difference the music can make to a scene, We experimented with different music for our opening sequence, instead of our original track "Something in the Way" we chose "Gold" by Spandau Ballet. This gave off a completely different mood to the sequence and made the clip seem quite comedic instead of a serious thriller. Our experimentation shows the importance of music in the production.

We made sure that every bit of editing we did enhanced the mood of the production. We made the dream black and white to add to the dark and creepy vibe of the clips in the dream, it also separated the dream from reality to make it clear to the audience. We used other effects such and ghost trails in the dream to make aspects more chilling. During the process and making of our production I learnt that all of these edits including music are very important, they make a huge overall difference to the final product.
