4. How did you use new media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation?
The document discusses the use of blogs and photography during the planning stages of a project to document the production process from brief to final script and storyboards. Blogs and images were used to share work and plan locations.
During the originalplanning stage, the use of
blogs/word press allowed us to show our work over
the whole process. This meant that our production
process is well documented throughout from our brief
to our final script and storyboards.
The use of cameras was also significant prior to
production to create a clear plan as to what areas we
shall use and what shall happen there based on
photographs.
The blogs also enabled us to share the images with
each other to go towards the planning of locations.

Adobe Indesign – Film review
Adobe Photoshop – Film Poster
Stock footage
4.
To create the film posters and reviews we used
Apple Macs, adobe InDesign for our film
review
InDesign is not new software to the market;
however it was new to me, but once
understood provided many tools to create a
final product that would both suit the
magazine we are aiming for and look
appealing to the eye.
5.
I used Adobe Photoshop to create my film
poster.
Once again, this is not new software but
updated software and better understand has
allowed me to create a film poster based on
others that I have seen
6.
We had the use of stock footage in the pre-
production stage. We used these free videos to
add another element to our film and show how
a Childs imagination can change the world
around him and what he encounters.
This was the first time that any of our group
had used these facilities and we managed to
adapt them to fit into our film and provide the
wanted effect
7.
Social networks – facebook, twitter
Video sharing – Youtube
Survey site – survey monkey
Prezi
Xtranormal
Slideshare
Blogs
8.
Using the likes of Twitter, Facebook and
Youtube, we were able to send our video using
four separate accounts to a wide range of
people in a short amount of time
Using these quick social mediums, we were
able to gain the views from people of all
genders and ages
This was the first time that any of us had used
these for such a constructive task
9.
We used the survey site, surveymonkey.com
This enabled us to create a 10 question survey
to link to our video on Facebook, Twitter and
Youtube
We gained 19 replies and these provided a
varying opinion amongst viewers
Along with Facebook/Youtube “Likes” as well
as comments, these replies enabled us to gain
accurate feedback about our film
10.
These along with a Microsoft word
document/written/essay answer, are the
internet software's available that I will use to
answer the evaluation questions
These are all software's that I have not used in
the past and after using them for this brief
time, I have experienced that they make the job
of answering much quicker and entertaining
11.
As stated earlier, we have used blogs before
but as my experiences have developed they
have become much easier to use
The blog shall be where all of our final
evaluation answers shall be placed collectively
