The document discusses the use of new media technologies in various stages of a project. A HD camera and tripod were used to film an artist, capturing close-up shots. Photoshop was used to create advertisements and a digipack, with tutorials consulted to learn techniques. The digipack incorporated layered photos to show locations featured in a music video. Apple Movie Maker was used to edit the video, applying effects to make professional-looking fading, jumping and "limitless" scenes.

1. How did you use new media technologies in
the construction and research, planning and
evaluation stages?
Evaluation Question 4

2. Camera
We used a HD camera for the duration of our shoot along with a
tripod which we used like a selfie stick to create our unique
super close up shot of our artist following him where he goes.
This combined with us hand holding the camera to get closer
shots. With this technique we did slightly sacrifice stability but
we believe the shots we did get were worth the minor lack of
stability.

5. Editing our advert and digipack.
As we were fairly new to editing and photo shop we did rely a
fair amount on various how to videos as well as questioning
actual computer graphic artists such as Ken Coleman, to see how
they had done things previously as well as taking advantage of
the opportunity to ask a professional about what he thought
looked good and what could be improved on our various pieces.

to improve pixel
quality.

6. Creating The Digipack

7. The finished Digipack

8. How we made our digipack
We experimented with several ideas for our
digipack a result of one of these experiments was,
using the image of a cloud from one of our photo’s,
to create several layers over the face of our artist.
Then by adding an effect to the clouds it allowed us
to see angus’ face. Through the collaboration of
many photos we took of various London land marks
and different angles of our artist we were able to
create a layered effect showing many of the places
that would feature in our video.

9. The Music Video
To create our video we used Apple Movie Maker as we felt the
quality of Apple was the best way of making the most visually
pleasing video. In Apple Movie Maker we had the use of many
effects and filters to make our video as professional looking as
possible it was because of this software we were able to create
fading scenes, jump scenes and create a “limitless” effect which
we believe made our video to the high standard we hold it too.
