1. HOW DID YOU USE NEW MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES IN THE CONSTRUCTION&RESEARCH, PLANNING&EVALUATION STAGES?

2. Media Technologies in Construction During the filming process I used a HD Camera and Tripod. I had used these before, and felt comfortable using them. This was used during the construction period. The Tripod allows me to do different heights as well as movement such as the tilt and pan. It also allows me to control the camera, and therefore the camera was steady.

3. Once it was filmed, I used the iMacs in which we used the iMoviepackage to create the music video. Editing skills and creativity was used to produce my music video, and an Animatic was also created using iMovie. We used digital cameras to take pictures of my storyboard in which I think bluetooth to the iMac so that I could create one.

4. Drama Room/Lightening This room provided with the lightening to make the Gig Scene in my music video. I had problems with it, as I had never used it in my life, and it was fun playing with the lights, once I got the hand of it, I change the lights to what I wanted. This use of the lightening for effect on my music video was done during the construction process.

5. Construction continued… Picnik used when constructing the Advert and Digipak www.picnik.com

6. As shown from the images on the previous slide, www.picnik.com was used to create the Magazine Advert and Digi-pak. This was extremely useful, as I couldn’t really understand or handle Photoshop well, so instead I used this. By using the different editing packages used I created both ancillary texts. All I had to do was upload a photo and edit it with different effects. I could zoom into my pictures so that I could colour in certain details I wanted to define, which was really effective and made some of the pictures for the Digi-pak intricate and interesting:

10. Media Technologies in Evaluation This year have been really productive with the use of new media technology, which makes the blog looks more sophisticated and fun. This year of new technologies include: Wordle Slideshare Surveymonkey

11. Continued… Wordle “Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and colour schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.” http://www.wordle.net/

13. Shareslide… PowerPointon Microsoft was used to produce the presentation, which has included illustrations and commentary as well as hyperlinks to certain sites that I have used. Using PowerPoint is extremely helpful in making this evaluation interesting, and colourful. As well as that I can convey so much more information on here and have some fun with it.

14. Continued…Surveymonkey Surveymonkey is a website in which you can create a survey. It then provides you with a web link so that you could send it to friends, which I used through social networking sites (Facebook) and email.

15. Survey monkey also provides me with percentages which enables me to analyse the audience feedback. For example, as shown in the illustration below, the majority of my audience who took part in the survey listened to R’N’B, Indie, Rock and Dance the most.
