1. How did you use New Media
Technologies in the research,
planning, construction and
evaluation stages?
2. Blogging...
- Throughout this project, I have been keeping track of what
I have been doing along the way. To do this, I used my
colleges VLE (Virtual Learning Environment), on the
internet, to blog about the researching, planning,
construction and evaluation of my music video.
3. Apple Macs...
Throughout my music video project, I
have continuously used Apple Mac computers and
the software on them to create my final video and
my Digipak. Throughout this slide show I will go into
more detail about the software I used on the Apple
Macs.
I found this computer difficult to use at
first as it was different to average computers that I
am used to using. However, the software available
on the Macs were incredibly helpful. Programs such
as Photoshop, iMovie, In Design etc were all vital
when producing my music video and Digipak. These
types of programs are available on Macs because of
convergence which is the joining of two media
products, for example: a computer and video
editing software.
4. When I began my
research, I couldnāt pick a
genre which I wanted to After watching copious amounts of

5. As well as researching
music videos, I used the
internet to research into
my ancillary tasks. We
were required to create a

with our music videos. Internet website āWikipediaā was
very helpful in helping me

my own Digipak's which I looked at.
As part of the project, we were also
briefed to design a magazine
advertisement to advertise the Digipak
and the music video. Again, Google was
my best friend in this task as I looked at a
lot of magazine advertisements from a
Rock genre using the search engine.

I didnāt incorporate a lot of digital technologies at
the planning stage of my production as I did a lot of
planning e.g. storyboards, mind maps, sketches etc
with a good old fashioned paper and pencil, as this
was the easiest method to use at this stage.

8. When creating my Digipack
products, I used websites such
as āDaFontā and ā1001 Free
Fontsā to acquire appropriate
fonts for my products. I
downloaded the fonts onto the
computer and I was then able to
use them on the appropriate
software.

After I had finished the final edit
of my video, I was the required to
upload it to my blog, so to do this,
I again used YouTube to upload
my user-generated content. This
was simple however I did have to
save my video in a particular
format so upload was possible.

school, I then uploaded the footage
and edited it along with titles to
show the questions I was asking my

For my fourth question, this here PowerPoint
presentation, I have used Microsoft PowerPoint to
display clearly how I have used media technologies
throughout my work. Also, for this question, I have
used Google search engine to look for images to put
onto this presentation and I have also used the print
screen tool.
11. Throughout this project, my understanding
of digital technologies has developed. The
variety of technologies I have used has been
vast and I now have a sound understanding of
how to use such products with ease.
