2. Photoshop
I used Photoshop to edit my digipak and poster, I used this because I know
how to use it from previous experience and it has the technology to create my
desired product
The main tools that I have used on Photoshop are:
Quick Selection Tool
Horizontal Type Tool
Blending Options
Outer Glow
3. During this process I have learned how to match text colours to the
background to make the product more visually appealing
I have learned how to make text stand out off the page using Outer Glow
I have learned how to use text that fits the mood and genre of the product in
order to make it successful and appealing
I have learned that if you take a good image little to no editing is required,
for my poster I took a lot of shots in order to find the perfect one for my
poster
4. Equipment
I have used how to effectively use the camera equipment to make an
effective project, this is the equipment I used:
5. Adobe Premier Pro
Georgia and I have used Adobe Premier pro to edit our music video
We decided to use this software to create our music video because it allows
us to sculpt our music video just the way we want it
The software allows you to upload or search for clips from your computer and
drag them into the viewing window in order to be edited
The presets, audio/visual transitions and audio/visual effects allow you to
add affects to your project
6. Due to the fact that I have never used Adobe Premier Pro until A2 Media, I
have learned a lot during this process
This includes:
How to edit footage to the desired length
How to add transitions to footage to make the video flow
How to piece together footage to make the music video effective
How to match visuals to the lyrics of a song
How to match visuals to the music of a song
How to break/ comply with conventions of music videos
How to work in a team to produce a project that we both thought was effective
7. Planning and Evaluation
I used various digital technologies during my planning and evaluation stages
I have used Blogger to present my work because it allows me to set out each
stage of my project in a clear way
I have used software such as Prezi, SlideShare and SoundCloud to present my
work, this allowed me to vary my presentations
I used the internet to research existing media texts and also use various
software to present my work
All videos were posted to YouTube as this was the easiest and most effective
way for them to be viewed
