How did you use media technology in the construction, research,
planning and evaluation stages?

2. RESEARCH
SlideShare
YouTube
Pinterest

Word
Internet
SlideShare was a great platform to use for my
PowerPoints as it allowed me to easily embed them onto
my blog so that the PowerPoint can easily be viewed
through the blog without having to open up another
program.
I used YouTube a lot during the research
stage of my production as it was another
great platform to use to view existing
media products so that I could learn from
theirs to make a successful product.
Pinterest was a great
inspiration source to my
research as it enabled me to
discover new ideas and
possibilities that I wouldn’t
have thought of before. It also
allowed me create mood
boards really quickly that
contained key bits of
information that impacted my
research.
One of the things that I learnt about
PowerPoint was the way it could record
lots of information in a clear way that
looked professional and could be viewed
with ease.
The internet played a huge part in
the research section of my
production as it gave me access to
further my reading, to find out and
learn more about the product I was
trying to create so that it was as
successful as it could be.
Word was a simple app
that allowed me to
display my research that I
had conducted, it made
viewing my work very
simple and easy.
Wix was used throughout the
construction of my music video to hold all
of my work for the project. Having a blog
allowed me to access all of my work in
one place with ease.

Photoshop allowed for me to be
more creative within the display
methods of my work, making it
more professional. Another
benefit to using Photoshop was
the ease of exportation; you can
choose what type of file you
export depending on your
needs.
Emails were an important part to the
planning stage as I was able to keep in
contact with team members and
communicate with people who were
affected by the production like
teachers, site managers and staff.
Prezi was a great presentation
tool to create creative and
visually exciting presentations
that looked professional and
hold lots of information. It was
also very easy to share the
presentations that I had created
and embed them onto my blog.
I used messenger a lot during the
planning stages of the productions so that
I could quickly contact my team members
so that we can update each other and so
that everyone could be informed just by
checking their phone rather than having
to open their emails; it was much quicker.

4. CONSTRUCTION
Adobe
Premiere
Pro

YouTube
Emails were an important
part to the planning stage as
I was able to keep in contact
with team members and
communicate with people
who were affected by the
filming of the production.
Photoshop allowed for me to be
more creative within the display
methods of my work, making it
more professional. Another
benefit to using Photoshop was
the ease of exportation; you can
choose what type of file you
export depending on your
needs. It also allowed for my
ancillary tasks to look more
professional because I was able
to edit them a lot better.
I used YouTube a lot during the
construction stage of my
production as it was another great
platform to use to view tutorials
so that I could learn from it and
develop my skills to make a
successful product.

I used a digital camera to
film my production as it
would make the overall
product look more
professional due to the
high quality adding to the
success of the product.
Using a tripod allowed me to capture clear and
perfectly still shots that could portray the
emotion without viewers being distracted by a
shaky camera. The tripod also enabled us to be
more creative with what shots we took as we
had more ability like pans, dolly's, close ups, ect.
Adobe premiere pro allowed me to create a creative and
successful music video due to the endless possibilities of
creative edits that other editing programs don’t have like
Window’s movie maker.

5. EVALUATION
SlideShare
PowerPoint
Word
Wix
I used PowerPoint within the evaluation stages as
an easy way to present my answers in a clear and
professional way, one thing that I learnt about
PowerPoint was the way it could record lots of
information in a clear way. Using PowerPoint
allowed me to use SlideShare to share my
PowerPoints on the internet where other people
could benefit and teach themselves through other
people’s PowerPoints.
As my PowerPoints were uploaded to SlideShare
it allowed me to easily embed them onto my blog
so that the PowerPoint can easily be viewed
through the blog without having to open up
another program. In order to do this I had to
google and teach myself how to embed the
PowerPoint, after I learnt how to do it, the
process was easy and made my blog look more
professional.
Wix was used throughout the construction of my
music video to hold all of my work for the
project. Having a blog allowed me to access all of
my work in one place with ease. As I developed
more skills, I could be more creative with my
blog and make it look more professional by
adding my own photos, embedding my work and
creating clear pages for my work to belong to.
Word was a simple app that allowed me to
display my research that I had conducted, it
made viewing my work very simple and easy. It
also allowed for me to easily create documents
that held more than one piece of work. For my
evaluation I was able to include images and
references to other texts which allowed my
work to contain a lot more information.
