and research, planning and evaluation stages?
What is new media technology?

This refers to access to content at anytime no matter
where you are on any digital device. For example;
Internet, websites, video games, DVDs. However it does
not include magazines or T.V programmes.
Which media technology did I use?
Blogger

Blogger played a vital role when it comes to presenting the
paper work. This is because blogger was used in order to
maintain all the paperwork, in order to present it. Without
blogger there would have been no blog, therefore not
being able to upload the work onto the site and present it.
YouTube

YouTube helped me throughout the coursework, as I used
YouTube in order to find trailers and analyse them. They
also have an embedded code so the clip becomes visible
on my blog. I also used YouTube in order to upload my final
trailer, therefore giving it the chance to be viewed by a
wide audience.
Word

Word was used throughout my coursework, as it allows me
to type up my paper work and then upload it onto an
interactive presentation such as Scribd. It also allowed me
to add on pictures, change the font and to add tables for
risk assessments.
Scribd
As mentioned in the previous slide, I used Scribd through
uploading my word document, in order to make my blog
interactive as well as making it look interesting rather than
just typing it up and posting it as this will bore audiences.
Microsoft PowerPoint

PowerPoint was used mainly for presentation purposes.
For example due to making a presentable PowerPoint
allowed me to upload it onto slide share to make my blog
interactive. PowerPoint allows you to make a more
aesthetically pleasing presentation than word.
Slide Share

As mentioned in the previous slide, I used PowerPoint to
make the presentation and then upload it onto slide share
in order to make the presentation interactive. This
presentation I am doing now too will be uploaded through
slide share.
PowToon

This was another interactive way of presenting my work.
This was new to me as I was searching for an interactive
source to present my work and I found this, and is more
interesting than the other ones.
Prezi

Prezi allowed me to add on videos, pictures and texts. This
particular site allows more slides to be added on and to be
played without having to keep clicking onto a button in
order to move to the next slide, which is the same as
Powtoon.
Final cut pro

I used final cut pro in order to edit and compose my trailer.
It allowed me to add on sound effects, music, dialogue and
add/cut in between scenes with transitions such as fade in
fade out.
Photoshop

Photoshop was used for the ancillary task which was to
create a film poster as well as a magazine front cover. I am
familiar with this software however in order to create a
unique poster to stand out I watched tutorials on YouTube
as well as searching on the internet for steps.
Video camera and tape

The video camera enabled me to film for my trailer
in high quality, therefore giving it a professional
look as a finish. This was all recorded onto the
tape, where the footage is transferred onto the
Mac to be edited.
Still camera
This was used to take pictures of the location for
the location notes as well as cast notes. The main
thing was to get the picture for the ancillary
task, therefore this was one of the main purpose
for the still camera.
Mac/Mac Book
The Mac was used in order to upload as well as edit
the raw footage to my production. Therefore the
Mac played a vital role in the production stage of
he project.
The Macbook was used in order to gain all internet
based work as well as typing up. It was also used in
order to complete the ancillary task as well as to
create the green screen for my trailer, title and
credits.
Soundcloud
The Mac was used in order to upload as well as edit
the raw footage to my production. Therefore the
Mac played a vital role in the production stage of
he project.
