1. How did you use new media
technologies in the construction
and research , planning and
evaluation stages
By Riannah St Louis Kerr
2. SlideShare
• I found that a lot of my work I produced for the
blog I created was on PowerPoint .so to allow me
to upload my work to the blog in the same form
of being in a PowerPoint slide show was to
upload it to slide-share . Uploading my work to
slide-share was quick easy and simple . I then had
to use an embedded link to place them onto the
blog . Using slide-share permitted me to create
slides that were clear and understandable .
• The only problem that I hasabout using slide
share
3. Prezi
• http://prezi.com/
• I enjoyed using Prezi as I believe it was a good way to
plan my work as you are able to create a online
presentation with no limitations . You can type as much
as you want , you can add images , links , and videos . I
felt that when I used Prezi my work was very organized
that who ever was looking at my planning could clearly
connect one idea to the next one . Prezi Is very
decorative and self explanatory which keeps the
audience interested in your work and also connected
with you ideas
4. YouTube & Internet Explorer
• Using YouTube enable me to • Using internet explorer was
research different music video very helpful through out my
to look for new and interesting work as I was able to use the
ideas to add to the music search engine Google to
video . Also I was able to look research the chosen artist
at different artist that were from the song and look up
along the same genre of music their past and also their future
of the chosen song this helped goals by looking at their
me to contrast my work websites and social networks
against the two. Also on such as twitter , MySpace and
YouTube we were able to Facebook. I was able also to
review comments on how to reaserch up able the record
improve our work and even labels and finally to look other
got a comment from the artist peoples cd covers and gaining
himself ‘ Artful Mark’ on our ideas .
prelim task.
5. Final Cut Pro
• I think that using Final Cut Pro was the worse
software I had to get used to . As I have had no
experience using this program , trying to get used
to it and format my music video onto it I found
complicated and I was unable to achieve my
initial idea as I had planned for the music video .
Although my fellow group member was a pro at
using this program he was able to help and guide
into how to achieve the ideas I wanted to portray
in the music video.
6. PowerPoint
• PowerPoint was the most media technology program I
used throughout my work as I found that I was very
quick and easy to create a PowerPoint presentation
that explain what I needed to get across in a simple
and straight forward form that every could understand
. Also using PowerPoint you can make each slide to
how you wish using different themes and colour
schemes to fit in with your chosen context. Upload
different slides onto the blog makes it more interesting
and keeps the audience involved as they are just
reading one long paragraphs . As each slide has an
image and short paragraphs explaining about the
relevant topic.
7. Photoshop
I used Photoshop in most of my construction work
in designing and creating my Digipak and magazine
cover . Using Photoshop allowed me to create the
right design that I had planned out in my head by
using different tools and effects on the program .
My creative side in my work enable to be developed
in the part of my work as you freedom to change
and rearrange images together ,to allow full
potential of customising the cd cover and magazine
advert to how I wanted it to look like.
8. Facebook
• I used Facebook through my planning stage and
also through my research progression . Using
Facebook was an easy and quick way of
communicating with fellow group members , also
gathering round people to collect feedback from
my target audience.From facebook profile
pictures I was also able to decide on what sort of
models we wised to film in our music video and if
they would fit the right personality for the actual
singe Ed- Sheeran & Kal Lavelle.
