1. Evaluation Question 4
How did you use media technologies in the construction
and research, planning and evaluation stages?

2. I used a number of different media technologies for the research and
Research and Planning planning stage. These media technologies included…

videos, the majority being from the rock

software's that were
on the computer.
I used blogger to keep record and
keep track of all the work that I had
done. I then used a variety of
different media technologies to
present my work through blogger.
We used blogger as it enabled us to
keep all our work in one place.
I used Google as my main search
engine throughout all stages, I found
it easy to use and find what I wanted
to find through it.

3. I used slide share to upload PowerPoint’s that I had
made to present on my blog. Slide shares that I made
included music video analysis’, questionnaires, risk
assessments, shooting schedule, shot lists, lyrics and Microsoft Word was also

I used Microsoft PowerPoint to make the
PowerPoint's which I then uploaded onto
slide share. The two slide shares that I first
created through PowerPoint were music
video analysis and the digipak final plan.
“Prezi is a presentation tool that helps you organize and
share your ideas”. On Prezi I created presentations which
showed part of my planning and research.

4. I used UK tribe for research into my target audience. By using
UK Tribes I found out that teenagers from our target audience
are in the alternative category. It also enabled us to find out
what they watch and where they buy from which helped when
planning who would advertise/play our music video.
I used Bauer Media to collect market research
about my target audience. This helped when it Rock FM was one of the radio stations that is

chose to analyse who the listeners of this
station are.
Planet Rock and Kerrang! were two other radio stations that were likely
to play our song and for this reason we chose to see who their general
listeners are so we knew who we were going to be targeting our video
at.

5. Construction
The camera I used for filming was a
Panasonic NVGS500. I found this camera
easy to use and it had the tools that I
needed.
We used a microphone during the
filming of the intro and outro of our

I also used a camera to take still images of
things. This included locations, characters
and the process of filming which I then
uploaded to blogger.

Page Roll, we used a transition called a page roll for the photo
album scene so it looked as though the photo albums page was
moving into the next shot.
Text, we also used the text tool so that we had text at the end of
the video to show who the artist and song is.
