1. How did you use media technologies in the
construction and research, planning and
evacuation stages?

2. Throughout the process of making a music video, advert and digipack for our artist, we
made use of various technology tools that helped make the process easier and time efficient.
Our team used a DSLR camera to take high quality pictures for the advert, digipack and
other small tasks such as blog posts. The great quality of the DSLR camera enabled us to
take pictures quickly and efficiently. We also used a HD filming camera to record our footage
for the music video. The camera produced videos in 1080p 50fps meaning that the quality
was really smooth, clear and stabilised. Also, we used our smartphones to record videos
such as audience feedback and other small footages. Smartphones were convenient and
fast to record videos.

3. The process of making the video required us to use different camera
equipment in order to produce a professional realistic music video.
Me and my partner made use of the photo shoot/ filming studio to
record most of the footage for our music video as well as take
pictures for the advert, digipack and posts for our blogs. Me and my
partner used a shoulder tripod stabiliser in order to get steady and
professional footage for the music video. We also used a tripod to
record time lapse and other long scenes in London.

4. Throughout my coursework I used Google as well as pinterest to gather ideas and
information about the brand, styling and costume of the music video as well as the artist. Our
chosen song has a pop/ dance genre to it, I got inspiration for that specific type of genre
after my research through Google, Pinterest and YouTube. For the construction stage of the
music video and ancillary tasks, I started using professional computer software's such as
Adobe premier and Photoshop. Starting off the tasks were easy as I used these software's
last year in AS coursework, however, creating the digipack for the album was slightly
challenging as it creating a design for CD required more tools and knowledge from
Photoshop. I have started created and published all my work from the use of an iMac. This
PC really helped me with my coursework and I had experience of using an iMac as I also
used for my AS work. The iMac was very fast and it processed files and data quickly, which
enabled me to work efficiently.
