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

During the process of making the product Conflict I learnt a lot about different technologies in both the production and post production processes.
Firstly, I learnt how to use a flipcam with and without a tripod for our continuity sequence. They were useful because of how compact and easy to use they were but shots were quite difficult to steady without a tripod. When filming the actual film opening I found it easier to get a steady shot with the Sony HD camera rather than a flipcam. The only hindrance of the Sony is that it would probably be unsafe to take it to the areas we originally wanted to film in because of it's attractiveness to thieves.
After filming, I watched tutorials on how to use Adobe After Effects and this helped with creating the company information at the beginning of the sequence. I also learnt how to use Adobe Final Cut Pro which was useful but in the end we decided to edit on a different format that one of the group members were very confident in as it would produce a higher quality end product.
