What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product ?
iMovie is a proprietary video editing software application which allows Mac users to edit their own home movies. It was originally released by Apple in 1999 as a Mac OS 8 application bundled with the first FireWire-enabled consumer Apple model – iMac DV.[1] Since version 3, iMovie has been a Mac OS X only application bundled in the iLife suite of Macintosh applications.[2]
iMovie imports video footage to the Mac using either the FireWire interface on most MiniDV format digital video cameras, the USB port, or by importing the files from a hard drive. From there, the user can edit the video clips, add titles, and add music. Effects include basic color correction and video enhancement tools, and transitions such as fade-in, fade-out, and slides.
iMovie is part of the iLife suite of software products that comes free with every Mac.
iMovie 6 was released in January 2006 as part of the iLife '06 suite and in iLife '08 as a substitution for iMovie '08 (due to the new version's incompatability with older Power PC Macintosh computers). It is integrated with iPhoto, iTunes, iDVD, GarageBand and iWeb. New features include:
Themes. Designed for ease of use, themes allow the user to drop movie clips or photos into professionally-designed backdrops. Each theme includes full-motion graphic bumpers and transitions.
Real-time effects. iMovie takes advantage of the computer's graphic processing unit to perform some effects without rendering.
Real-time titling
Enhanced audio tools and effects
Multiple open projects
Video podcasts and blogs (using integration with iWeb)
Refined look based on iTunes 5 and 6.

HOW DID YOU ATTACT/ADDRESS YOUR AUDIENCE?
Through research it has been noted that the reason why audiences love Psychological Horrors is due to:
The Greek philosopher Aristotle believed that dramatic portrayals gave the audience an opportunity to purge itself of certain negative emotions, a process he called, catharsis. Feshbach (1976), in extending this approach to media presentations of violence and graphic horror, argued that dramatic or violent cinematic exhibitions encouraged the purgation of pent-up emotion and aggression and in so doing reduced the probability that a person would act on these emotions.
Psychological horror tends to be subtle compared to traditional horror and typically contains less physical harm, as it works mainly on the factors of mentally affecting the audience rather than the display of graphic imagery seen in the slasher and splatter sub-genres. It typically plays on archetypal shadow characteristics embodied by the threat. [2] It creates discomfort in the viewer by exposing common or universal psychological vulnerabilities and fears, most notably the shadowy parts of ourselves in which most people repress or deny.
