1. How did you use media
technologies in the
construction and
research, planning and
evaluation stages?
- Construction of
the trailer, poster
and magazine cover

2. Photoshop
• This software is used for editing
photos to make them look
professional. I used this to create
and edit my poster, I was able to
use many different effects and
change the brightness to make my
poster look more authentic.
• I also made a movie title card for
my trailer. I did this by using the 3D
tool and different layers. By
following a tutorial online I found
this easy to make.
• I edited the images for my
magazine covers using photoshop,
making sure that they were edited
to a high standard.

3. InDesign
InDesign is another software that
allows you to edit photos and
construct media products such
as magazines and posters. This
is why I decided to make my film
magazine using InDesign.
I used a font called ‘Hitchcock’
for the writing and made the title
of the film red so it would stand
out.
I found this software easier to
use than Photoshop.

4. Premiere
Pro
This is a software that ables you
to edit videos at an industry
level. I found Premiere pro really
difficult to use at first and it
took some getting use to. I tried
out many different effects using
this software, for example the
colour correction on the dress.
This technique was relatively
straight forward. I also edited
text onto my clips to conform to
a film noir trailer.

5. I used youtube to upload different
versions of my trailer to show my
progression to the final trailer that I
created.

On my blog I kept record of my
progression, this also allowed people to
comment on what I needed to improve.

6. Other technologies
that I used
• Panasonic camera for filming
• Voice recorder
• School computers and my own
laptop
• Fuiji camera for the photoshoot
