Video/Hardware Response

1) My experience with the Olympus digital camera was fine. I didn’t encounter any huge problems, but the problems I did encounter only dealt with getting to know the device. Compared to other still/video camera’s I have previously used, this one is extremely out of date. It gets the job done, but there are so many more up to date cameras that I would prefer using a newer one. But overall, I was able to capture the photos I needed that pertained to my Image Capturing Strategy. In an ideal world, now this sounds stupid, but I would have a camera that would be hooked up to a pair of glasses. Anywhere you look or put the glasses, a picture could be taken via a wireless button. In addition, I would have it so that any video or picture you took would automatically be transfered to your computer, meaning you wouldn’t have to use a memory card.



2) I chose to use iMovie, because I have used it in the past for many occasions/projects, and have always found it very user friendly with many extras available to use.. The thing is though, that the new version that came on my new MacBook Pro was way different and confusing. I ended up downloading the old iMovie HD, which is where I did the majority of the editing and exporting. For some of the effects, I did use the new iMovie and then transferred the files to the old iMovie program. As for the future, I will definitely use the combination of the new and old iMovies. Though it is a bit of a pain, the end results speak for themselves.
