1. How did you use new media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages? Stacey Mackereth

2. Final Cut Pro – Software I used Final Cut Pro on the Mac computer to capture all footage I had filmed and I used this software to manipulate the shots. I was able to do this by editing through use of cutting shots in length, using the colour corrector aspect to brighten my shots up, video transitions to add fade in fade out features to the shots. I was also able to use Final Cut Pro to add in the audio to my Music Video and this helped me to line the lip syncing in the correct place.

3. Photoshop I used Photoshop on the Mac computer to edit my Ancillary products to match similar mise en scene and editing made on my chosen artist’s c.d digipacks and advertisements. I learned how to use many aspects on the Photoshop software to enhance my products. By using this software I was able to make measurements and made the same sizing of an actual c.d and c.d digipack. It also allowed me to use colour correction and to add text to make the products more authentic.

4. I used a HD Camera and this particular camera was on a Tripod with wheels, this enabled me to move around with ease and have clearer steady shots. This enabled my shots to look more professional and authentic. The Camera

5. I used an Over Head Projector within my Music Video creating a certain look that I felt was appropriate and applicable to my product. I had used this media technology to project images over the top of my actors. Over Head Projector

6. Blog I used the new media technology of keeping a blog to make entries on research and planning of my Music Video and my selected artists. I also used this Blog to keep up to date with my plans on filming and editing and made sure I update to understand the development of my productions.
