Professional and successful video production process consists of three stages: Video Pre-Production, Video Production and Video Post-Production. The first stage, video pre-production, identifies goals and objectives of the video project. It considers issues such as target audience, video length and music, technology, script, locations, actors, budget, project deadlines and crew. Video production stage incorporates video shooting as well as considerations such as safety, set-up, breakdown and make up. Video post-production stage consists of video editing process, video compression and video publishing process. Issues in the third stage are considered in the video pre-production stage as they depend on the goals and objectives of the project.

3D Animation


The interactive non-linear narrative is built up in Adobe Flash. The website requires an Adobe Flash Player 11.5 in order to be viewed on the web. Such complex Adobe Flash website must incorporate ActionScript programming language supported by Adobe Flash. The Graphics and photos of the website could be designed and edited in Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator. The video could be edited and compressed in video editing software such as Final Cut Pro or Sony Vegas Pro. The videos could be compressed to FLV or F4V (H.264) format supported by Adobe Flash software. These video formats are the most common web based video formats. The videos could be embedded into a Flash file or could be external video files in order to reduce the website size. The interactive event also incorporates 3D animations which could be designed in Autodesk 3ds Max. Audio compression could be MP3 as this is the most common flash audio format.

Production process:
  1. Learn – The most important part of the production process is discovering and understanding what technology to use for building the website according to the objectives and goals of the project.
  2. Plan – The first step will act as a foundation of the planning step which includes researching, note taking and sketching
  3. Design - Creating assets for the website
  4. Code – Building up the website in Adobe Flash software, incorporating the assets and scripting language ActionScript  
  5. Launch – The developer uses file transfer protocol (FTP) in most cases to connect to the remote web server and upload the website from a local folder, to make the page publicly accessible
  6. Maintain - During the planning process, the website developer should be in charge who will maintain the website

It incorporates assets such as video, sounds, text, images, graphics and 2D animations. The website incorporates video and sound backgrounds which bring the end user closer to the park. Such complex Adobe Flash website must incorporate ActionScript programming language supported by Adobe Flash. The Graphics and images of the website could be designed and edited in Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator. The video could be edited and compressed in video editing software such as Final Cut Pro or Sony Vegas Pro. The videos could be compressed to FLV or F4V (H.264) format supported by Adobe Flash software. These video formats are the most common web based video formats. In my opinion the videos are external video files in order to reduce the website size. The gallery is presented in an engaging way displayed on the whole background of the website.

Blacknegative is an amazing HTML5 website which looks like a Flash website.

Home Page



Source Code Of The Home Page


Considering the source code of the Home page, the website uses technology such as HTML5, Javascript, HTML DOM and CSS.
HTML5 uses simple <!doctype> declaration: <!DOCTYPE html>, the same is displayed in the very beginning of our source code. The website could be built in Adobe Dreamweaver software which can generate HMTL code.
There are also internal and external Javascript files:


·         <script type="text/javascript" src="js/min.js"></script> -Reference of the External Javascript file declared in the Head section of the website
·         <script type="text/javascript">

              var _gaq = _gaq || [];
              _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-31695580-1']);
              _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
           
              (function() {
                var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
                ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
                var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
              })();
           
            </script> - Internal Javascript code declared in the Body section of the website


Javacript is a web based programming language that adds interactivity to the websites.
Considering the Internal Javascript code, HTML DOM markup language is also part of the script. The getElementsByTagName () is a HTML DOM method. HTM DOM defines a standard way for accessing and manipulating HTML documents.
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets and it defines the layout of the web page. In my example, there are External and Inline style sheets:


·         -<link href="skins/blacknegative/css/min.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" > - External Style Sheet

·            - <div class="home-back-item-background" style="background-image:url('skins/blacknegative/images/home/vignette/4.png');"></div> - Inline Style Sheet


The interactive non-linear narrative incorporates assets such as video, audio, graphics, texts, photos, images, 2D animations.

Graphics, photos and images could be designed and edited in Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator.
The video could be edited and compressed in video editing software such as Final Cut Pro or Sony Vegas Pro. The videos could be compressed to MP4 H.264 with AAC. These formats are the most common web based formats. In my opinion the videos are external video files in order to reduce the website size.
