A2 Media Evaluation (Planning stage)

1. What technologies I will be
using for each question
BY JUMANA YASMEEN

2. I will be presenting all my answers for the questions on WordPress. Not only is this
another technology which is an advantage but also, it is easy to use. It is good for
publishing information which is good as it will allow me to showcase my abilities
sufficiently. WordPress is also like a blog and this will prevent my answers to the
evaluation questions from looking like an essay. You can also work on layout which
will allow me to communicate and present my ideas sufficiently and neatly so that it is
easier and fun to read.

3. Question One
Question one: “In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge
forms and conventions of real media products?”
-For this question, I will be using Slideshare, I decided to use this technology as this
question has three stages, so I thought that I will be able to present my ideas more
sufficiently on Slideshare as it will not look crammed in as I can use different slides for
different stages. Slideshare is good for use of infographics, this is suited for the
question as I will be annotating my work for example, the print products I made,
music video and case studies. There is a lot to explore in this question as it covers a
wide range of topics and this is suited to Slideshare as Slideshare can handle large
files.

4. Question Two
Question two: “How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary
texts?”
- For this question I will be using Thinglink as I will be annotating my print products,
music video and case studies, this technology will allow me to annotate in detail as it
is good for annotating stills as you can create infographics on this technology.

5. Question Three
Question three: “What have you learned from your audience feedback?”
-For this question, I will be using Prezi as it is good for infographics, which is suited to
this question as I will be annotating all the changes I made considering audience
feedback. Also Prezi allows me to embed links in a presentable way which is an
advantage as in this question I will be embedding all the audience feedback that I put
up on YouTube.

6. Question Four
Question Four: “How did you use media technologies in the construction and
research, planning and evaluation stages?”
-For this question, I will be using TimeToast as this technology allows me to put the
exact dates of this process and allows you to divide the areas/ technologies used for
example Photoshop, Final Cut Pro etc…
