3. New skills I have developed from creating
the website:
One of the most important aspects about this project was developing our
ICT skills through the two different software's we used. I developed a
number of different skills whilst creating my website. It was the first time I
had set-up a website and so the software was new to me. One of the most
important skills I learned from creating a website was how to lay it out in a
sophisticated and inventive way that would be engaging for year 9 students.
I fulfilled this by adding a slide-show of photos, showing a variety of medias
in my work and by adding pages with text and visual imagery. I also created
a banner for my website and used different shapes to make my website look
more aesthetically pleasing. I have also learned how to upload a video to
YouTube.

banner which I have used to
make the website look more
sophisticated.
I have also I have learned how to install
experimented with images onto the website used
different fonts and images on my website, to make
typography it more visually interesting
5. New skills I have developed from creating
the movie:
I have learned many knew skills through using imovie. One of the most
significant skills I have developed is how to add transitions making the
fluidity of the movie nicer for the audience. The exploration of themes was
also something I learned and something I never knew you could use before
experimenting with different layouts and themes for example I used the
journal theme to make my movie more engaging for year 9 students. I also
learned how to import movies and pictures into imovie and how to cut and
crop them to fit the movie. I added music behind the movie and I learned
how to change the loudness of the the background music to fit the movies I
put in the movie.

8. Originality and Creativity through my
theme:
A lot of the originality ad creativity of my project comes from my overall
theme and concept of my project. The concept of my project was to create a
movie and website inspiring year 9 students to take drama, including all the
details about what year 11 GCSE drama consists of. The idea was extremely
original and creative selecting a topic that involves a range of media,
including the capability to use videos and photos to show year 9s in a visual
perspective of the year 11 course.
9. Originality and Creativity shown through
my website:
Why did I choose the layout for my website?
My website is packed with creative and original concepts, sophisticated
themes and a range of original media forms. For my website I have used the
online website builder, Wix. I chose to use this website builder to help me
create my website as it had a number of interesting tools on it, allowing me
to make my website eye-catching and sophisticated. It was also relatively
easy to navigate and understand, which was extremely important for me as
it was the first time I had created an official website.
10. Originality and Creativity incorporated in
my Movie:
Why Did I choose the software Imovie?
My movie is filled with creativity and originality. I used imovie as my
software to help create my website. I chose imovie to make my video with
because of its wide variety of themes, transitionsand its variety of tool
which helped make my project unique and different.
12. Step 1-Choosing the two different software:
Wix-Website builder
Imovie-Movie maker
13. Created the opening page
using a picture as a form of
visual imagery. I focused on
creating a sophisticated
website, which I tried to
establish using a simple but
effective colour palette.
Step 2-Website
14. Step 3-Website
I then created the different pages for my
project as shown in the photo, a home page,
GCSE drama page, Cambridge page, Gallery
including a slideshow page etc.
15. Step 4: Website
On week 2 I started editing each
page making each one unique.
This page I included what year 11
consists of in a short but clear and
easily understandable list.
16. Step 5-Website
Step 5 consisted of finessing my project
for example including borders and banners to make
It more aesthetically pleasing.
17. Step 6-Website
For the final stage
of my website I created
a page where students
and parents can submit
a form with questions,
Inquiries, top tips etc.
18. Step 2-Video
After choosing the
software I decided on a
theme and one of the
things I was really keen
on doing was making
my video into a journal
form.
19. Step 3-Video
Once I had selected a theme for my video started exploring
the different effects and transitions
I explored different
Transitions so the flow
of my project was
better and more
sophisticated
20. I then Videoed a number
of Students in year 11
Step 4-Video Incorporating a few in my
Movie. The videos show
Opinions of year 11
students.

22. I then found a suitable song to play
as my background songs and
Step 6-Movie learned how to put that over
photos changing the loudness of
the music when the videos came
on
23. The last thing I did for movie was finessed m
transitions interesting and so they supporte
my theme of it being a journal.
Step 7-Movie
