The document discusses various technologies the author has used to construct their product, including: - Blogger to post 20 blog posts and receive feedback from their teacher. - Slideshare to embed PowerPoint presentations into blog posts and showcase work. - Survey Monkey to easily create and distribute surveys to peers and analyze results. - Prezi for unique and interactive online presentations beyond PowerPoint. - Photoshop to modify images like cutting out backgrounds for a magazine cover using tools like the magic eraser and eraser. The author feels they have learned to effectively utilize available technologies and could not have created their realistic media production work without them.

1. What have you learnt about
technologies from the process of
constructing this product?

2. Blogger
As you can see by looking at the
screenshot you will see that I have used
blogger to post any and all pieces of
work to my blogger account. Currently
there are 20 blog posts on my blog
including the production work.
After posting new blog posts I would usually
email Mr. Rosen in order to inform him that
new work has been posted so I can receive
feedback for my work

3. Slideshare
This screenshot is the home page of my
Slideshare account. I have used to the
online software to embed my research
work from Microsoft PowerPoint to a
format readable by blogger. It is a useful
tool because I can showcase my work in
another way besides a blog post.
This screen shot shows Slideshare being
put to use in one of my blog posts in
which I analyze survey data.

4. Survey Monkey
• Survey monkey is online software which helped me to create surveys and
send them to my peers. It was very easy to use and if I had any problems
whilst using the software then I could just visit the survey monkey help
centre.
The below screen shot shows an
example of one of my surveys on
survey monkey.
In survey monkey your question can have
many options, there are many different
types of question you can ask. Also the
software makes it very easy for the user to
simply email the survey around to friends
and then the software will automatically
put your results into tables and graphs so it
is easy to analyse.

5. Prezi
• Prezi is an online presentation software that I have learned to use to show my
ideas in fun and unique ways because with Prezi it is almost limitless the amount
of things you can do and edit. For example it is very interactive and the user can
follow paths on where they want to travel to on the presentation. Using Prezi gives
me another way of expressing my work rather than just through blog posts and
PowerPoint's. Prezi is very unique and exciting to use because the endless
possibilities available to the user. Below is an example of how I have used Prezi in
order to show some of my research work.

6. Photoshop

7. This is an image of my school contents
page . As you can see the editing and
skills used is very basic in comparison to
my magazine cover and contents page.
There is very little evidence of image
modification.
Photoshop

8. Image modification for my production
work
This is the image before I edited it.
This is the image after I edited it. As you
can see I have cut out the background.

9. Evidence for modification.

10. • On the previous slide there is a video which gives
evidence for image modification. If you watch the
video it is easy to notice that I have cut out the
background for my image as that is my main image on
my magazine cover. To cut out the background I used
two tools and they were the magic eraser tool and the
eraser tool when I used the eraser tool I needed to
change the size of it so that I could be more precise.

11. Final evaluation
• Overall I have used the technologies available
to me to the best of my ability and I feel that I
have learnt a lot about the different
software's which have been mentioned.
Without the technologies I would not have
been able to create such realistic pieces of
media production work.
