During their coursework, the student used various software and hardware. They used Prezi, Safari, social media, PhotoBooth, YouTube, and Microsoft for planning. They shot footage on digital cameras and camcorders and edited it on iMovie before uploading it to YouTube. For construction, they also used Photoshop. For evaluation, they presented using Prezi, PowerPoint, Slideshare, and made a video. They were familiar with most software but found Photoshop, Movie Maker, and QuickTime difficult to use initially. They had some technical issues uploading footage due to incompatibilities between the cameras and Macs.

2. •During the different stages of my
coursework I had to use a variety of
different software's and hardware's. I

them last year, however there were a
view new software's which I was new to,
they were; QuickTime and Photoshop.

5. •During the planning stage of my coursework the software’s I
used were; Safari ,Prezi, Social Networking Sites, PhotoBooth,
Youtube, Slideshare, Blogger and Microsoft.
• Most of these software's were used to present the research
findings for example Prezi. However others were used to do
research for example safari and social networking sites.
• We used PhotoBooth to create a video on me and my group
having a discussion on different things also a video of my focus
group discussing what we should and should not include in our
music video. We then uploaded these videos onto Youtube as it
was easier to put it on to our Blogs. Social Net Working sites were
used as part of our focus group research, we asked random
people of our age of what they think should be included in our
music video. We used Microsoft to present some of our work for
example our digipak mood board. We also used it to layout our
work like our digipak. We put our digipak together and labeled
what each thing was ( back cover, front cover etc.)

6. •During the construction of my coursework the software's and
hardware's me and my group used were; digital camcorders,
digital cameras, mobile phones (iphones), Imovie, Youtube
and Adobe Photoshop CS3.
•I used digital camcorders and digital cameras to film our
music video. I did not find it hard to use them as I had
experience in using them before however I did have problems
with uploading them onto the computer as it did not work on
all the Macs. We uploaded the the scenes we filmed on to
Imovie. Imovie is the programme we used to edit the scenes
we filmed. After we finished editing the music video we
uploaded the completed version on to Youtube and then
uploaded it onto our Blogs. We used Photoshop when we were
making our digipak and advert.
This is where I uploaded everything I did. All
the planning and researching, the work I did
during the construction of my video and my
evaluation.

7. •During the evaluation of my coursework the software's and
hardware's me and my group used were; Prezi, PowerPoint
presentation, Slideshare, Blogger, QuickTime and PhotoBooth.
•I used different software's to present each question for
example for question 1 I used Prezi as thought it would be
easier to right down and give examples to back up my points,
for question 2 I used Prezi but I also included a voiceover, I
decided to use a voiceover as I thought it would be easier for
me to put forward my thoughts, question 3 I decided to do a
video and finally for question 4 I chose to use PowerPoint
presentation/ Slideshare.

8. •The software’s I found easy to use were; Prezi, Imovie,
PowerPoint presentation, PhotoBooth, safari, Blogger, Slideshare,
Youtube, Microsoft Paint, iTunes and Microsoft Word. I found
these software's easy to use as I used them last year so I was
familiar with them. However there were some software's which I
found hard to use these were; Adobe Photoshop CS3, Windows
Movie Maker and QuickTime. These software’s were difficult to
use as I was not familiar with them, I did not use them before. I
used Youtube to help me use these software's, for example on
Youtube I searched how to change the colour of the
background.

9. I did not have any difficulties with the
hardware's as I knew how to use them however
we had a few problems with the Macs. We
knew how to use the Macs however their were
some software's which we did not know how to
use and also the camera did not work on all the
Macs so we had technical problems when we
wanted to upload our recordings on to the
computer.
