3. I used several technologies during
the research process.
In order to get see what other music videos and research into genres I
had to use several online websites and programs to see.
4. Video research
In order to see other music videos I had to use websites like Youtube
and MuZu.tv by doing this is enabled me to analyse them to see what
actual music videos looked like. By doing this it allowed me to take
ideas from these music videos and implement them into my own. At
the very start of this I browsed many music videos but only analysed
three.
5. Video research
I also used Microsoft Office package to analyse a full music video
which was Stan by Eminem, by using Microsoft publish it allowed me to
look through the video (using windows media player which is another
useful technological tool to view videos) and analyse it step by step. It
allowed me to get a grasp of a concept for a music video.
6. Video research
There was the useful tool of google, a search engine. It was used
throughout the research process to look for music videos and for genre
research to see what music videos of each genres were showing and
how this may contrast with my own music videos genre.
8. Storyboard
In order to create my storyboard I used Macromedia flash, I created
a short animation showing each shot that I wished to create, I then
used to upload feature of youtube to put it somewhere so I am able
to link it to my blog.
9. Shotlist
In order to create a shotlist, I used Microsoft word to sort each shot
of which I needed, It was useful as I was able to clearly set out each
shot I needed with all the information.
11. Filming
In order to film I would need a camera to get the correct shots, for
this I used a school camera which I borrowed for a while to get the
shots I needed for my music video, I also had to use editing software
which I used Adobe Premier elements as it is a useful tool as I was
able to use several effects to get the video I wanted. One of the
most useful was the lighting tool, as when filming the lighting wasn’t
great.
12. Digipak
In order to create the digipak, I first had to find a font to use, I used
the website 1001fonts.com fonts so I could find a font that suited the
alternative style, I also had to edit it in macromedia fireworks. By
using 100fonts it gives a wide choice of fonts of which I am able to
use. Then the image editing software macromedia fireworks enables
me to edit the digipak images and fonts. To bring it all together I
used a program called quark which is great for positioning and is a
very professional piece of software.
14. Feedback
In my evaluation in order to get my feedback I had to ask people
on different forms of social media, these were facebook, twitter and
snapchat. I used snapchat to get to my closest friends and was a
very quick thing to do, getting replies I could see who would
actually be willing to do it. Then facebook to message these
people. I did try twitter but I only got several answers and because
they were very short they didn’t seem very useful. I also used a
website mixbook, it is another creative tool to store information, an
original purpose may be a book showing photos of a past event,
but I have used it to show my audience feedback.
15. Text combination
In order to use this I used a website called prezi, it is an easy way to
share information in a creative way. Enabling you to zoom and pan
and freedom rotate an vector image is changes the way in how
you may view information in a creative power point type view.
16. Conventions of music videos
For this I decided to use adobe premier elements as I have used this
previously and I now know better how to use it, then I have also
used youtube again so I have a place to upload my video,
17. Media tecnologies
Finally I have used Microsoft office powerpoint to create this
powerpoint as I am able in import text and images that suit the
needs of the task, and I have also used the website slideshare to
upload this to the internet for viewing purposes.
