1. HOW DID YOU USE MEDIA
TECHNOLOGIES IN THE
CONSTRUCTION AND
RESEARCH, PLANNING AND
EVALUATION STAGES?
2. MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES USED
FOR RESEARCH AND PLANNING
• For me to enable that all the information was in one place and documented in a way
which was easy to read and view, I had to use several applications which allowed for
me to present my work in a way which was clean and organized. The most
commonly known means of application which I used to present my work was
PowerPoint and Microsoft Word, these applications are easy to use and as I already
knew how to navigate and work with these applications they were my starting
point. As my research and planning work progressed I started to use applications
such as google slides, prezi, emaze, slideshare etc. These applications were
straightforward and allowed me to have great presentations.
3. BLOGGER
• Blogger is an online platform, which is free. This platform allows people
to upload pictures, web links and information onto their own personal site as
well as to comment and view other blogs like theirs or even randomly. Blogger is
the site which I have been using throughout year 12 and year 13, to upload my
coursework which enables my teachers and fellow students to view my work. This is
a digital way for my teachers to track my work. This is easy way of me editing and
uploading posts, or re uploading some posts, if I have made mistakes or even if I
have changed my plan.
• I enjoyed using blogger as a platform to showcase my work as not only was I able to
present my work but due to the different websites I was able to link to my blog this
allowed me to make my work even better and creative.
4. YouTube was what I used for the final part of my coursework, this enabled me to
upload m video as well as watch other videos to help me understand which route I
wanted to go down with my work. Watching other artists videos this enabled me to
get ideas and to make my work better.
Adobe Premiere Pro was a software which I used for my work such as editing my
music video. This software enabled me to look in detail at my video and for me to edit
this to the highest possible standard.
Adobe Photoshop was used for my magazine advert, this application was easy to use
and allowed me to experiment with different texts, effect and filters. This particular
application also allowed me to fix anything wrong with my images that could be done
without having to recapture the image.
5. EVALUATION
• During my evaluation process, I had to use an variety of online media
applications which would help me to present my work in a manner which was
professional and organized. I used software such as Emaze, slideshare
and Canva, these allowed me to create informative presentations where I was able
to get my information across as well as keeping it neat and constructed.
• These applications enabled me to add images, edit images, present information is
fun ways as well as keeping things quite proffesional.
6. CONCLUSION
• I used these media applications in different ways to present my work so that I could
successfully complete my ancillary texts and music video. The process of using
these helped me and were very efficient.
• Overall im satisfied with the outcome of my products due to the fact that they had
to be redone with an Iphone instead of the use of a Canon camera due to technical
faults.
