2. RESEARCH
ONLINE NEWSPAPERS
we used many different online
newspapers research music videos
, bands and directors. for example
we read a times article on the
Maccabees and used it in
evaluation question 1.
3. ONLINE MAGAZINES
I used the format of online magazines to do
specific demographic research into what a
contemporary audience think about music
videos and bands.
4. TWITTER
Twitter is an online social network
service and mircoblogging service that enables its
users to send and read text-based posts of up to
140 characters. I used the twitter programme to follow
experts in the media world also I used it to research our
band the maccabees.
5. PREZI
I used prezi to present my research on the music
video genre .I taught myself to use the
programme Prezi because this is a visually
interesting way to show my research into the
video genre.This is the my Prezi on the music
video genre the link is below.
6. MY SPACE
A traditional platform for music bands and fans was a
site I used extensively to research different bands and
music videos. particularly the band we chose for own
media the maccabees which are a band that use the
social media site for a lot of their promotion .
7. YOUTUBE
I have used YouTube for research and for inviting feedback on my own
video work. My school Claremont has its own YouTube channel. I also
used the programe DAGADOP . I used the new programme to collect
the videos that i I analysed. This saved time in the research process
and helped me to remember which videos to analyse.
8. CELTX
I used the design program celtx to plan our
performance shots and stage product. If not for
this programme then all of our performance shots
would be left unplanned and would have resulted
in a far worst final product.
9. MOBILE PHONE
I have used my mobile phone to share ideas and
footage with my peers. Also inside my own
group to communicate and Coordinate while
making the media project.
10. CONSTRUCTION
DIGITAL CAMERA, TAPE RECORDER
In our music video we used a number of different
cameras and camera equipment . Firstly we
used the nixon SLR which we used for the
performance and design element shots.
However we used the sony DCR HC51camera
for the other shots to give a feel of playful fun.
11. ADOBE PHOTOSHOP
I used this programme to make digipack and
magazine advertisement . I have used this
programme before in media studies so I felt
comfortable using it in which I did extensively to
create and edit the magazine ad / digi-pack.
without the use of this programme many of the
most modern elements of I project would have not
been achieved for example the headless band
members in the digi pack was achieved using
photoshop.
12. YOUTUBE
I have used YouTube for inviting feedback
on your own video work .My school
Claremont has its own YouTube channel.I
have also used Youtube for research for on
the music video genre.
