The document discusses various technologies used to construct a product for a course evaluation, including Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Premiere, Blogger, a radio studio, digital cameras, a DV camera and tripod, Prezzi, Glogster, SlideShare, and Excel. Photoshop was used to edit images for a print ad, Premiere helped edit video footage for a documentary and radio spot, and Blogger stored work files and uploads. Other equipment like cameras, microphones, and a tripod helped capture high quality audio and video footage. Presentation tools like Prezzi, Glogster, and SlideShare allowed engaging presentations of work online. Excel helped tally and visualize results.

1. Evaluation question 4
construction

2. TECHNOLIGIES
• Throughout the course I have used a wide
range of technologies that have helped me
and my group construct our product. Some
are allot easier and simple to use than others
but after practice none of these technologies
are impossible to use.

3. Adobe Photoshop
• This is one of the main software's we used as we had to construct our print add on
this. Photoshop is a brilliant software to use as you can crop, edit, and change
colour/lighting along with many other things for our print add we had to use one
main image then add other images on top including channel four writing this was
very time consuming as we had to crop witch letter we needed and had to put in
on top of the main layer letter by letter. The cut out tool was very useful as it
allowed us to cut around the person for our first idea, it was tricky at first but after
practice it became allot easier to do for our second and final idea we had to use
the square cut out tool witch was allot easier due to the practice of the first
picture. This software was really good for our image as it allowed us to use the
paint brush opacity tool we had to zoom in and use different shades to see what
looked best the opacity allowed us to colour them in and then go a lighter shade so
we could still see the image underneath this helped the moth look allot more
grungy and emphasised the tooth decay. We also had to get a channel four logo
and load it onto a transparent background cutting carefully around the edges
allowing us to place onto the main layer, overall this software is a really good one
to use as it has allowed us to make our print add look professional and allowed us
to add it to the radio add and documentary to make a good package.

4. Adobe Premiere CS6
• Adobe premiere is the main software we used as it is what we used to edit
the production of the five minute documentary and our radio trailer me
and my group shared this task very well by all taking it in turns to do this
and working on it all together, one of the good things about premiere is
that you can control sound levels by hiring the little line on the editing
strip so you could make sure the song that covered our opening titles was
the same sound level as the next interview coming up straight after. the
brackets on the left hand side allowed you to get the parts you wanted by
opening and closing the brackets so you could then delete or drag out. this
was a very useful tool to use because it allowed us to cut out bits of the
song lollypop by mika to put into the music bed as we only wanted the
happy cheerful parts. to create text you have to press the ctrl button and
the T this allows you to bring out text and make it bubbly fun scary etc, the
media browse box on the left allowed me to grab different bits of footage
from the folder whenever I needed it so I thought this software was easy
to use and was good to organise the folders. Overall using this software
has been great as it has helped me and my group get a professional look
on our products.

6. Blogger
• Blogger is the main source I use because it
allows me to store all of my work files and
allows me to upload pictures photographs
prezzi,extranormal,slideshare,glogster and
videos for example premiere my blog is were I
store all of my work and it is very easy to use
as I have practised on it for a very long time.

7. Radio studio
• The radio studio has been very useful to me as
this is were we recorded Helen for our voice
over although we had to ask her to record it a
few times over so we could get the right one.
It is brilliant as the microphone and head sets
have allowed our radio trailer and
documentary to sound very professional.

8. Digital stills cameras
• We used these cameras to take photographs
of the editing and recording process for
example whilst Susan and Andréa record and
ask the questions then I would take the
photographs of them doing so of proof for us
to upload them to our blogs. These cameras
are very easy to use as they are simple and
hold a good amount of memory

9. DV camera, tripod and microphones
• This equipment was the main equipment me and
my group used as we used these at every
interview we had to ask the person we were
interviewing to wear the microphone in order for
the interview to block out other sounds and make
that person sound load and clear the tripod held
the camera and allowed all shots, zooms and
other photographs to be still straight and not
wonky it also prevented and shaky camera work.
using this equipment it helped our work look allot
more professional.

10. prezzi
• Prezzi is a site that allows you to present your
work in a different interesting way as it allows
you to add zooms shaped and images and
paths this is a easy and simple sight to use and
allows your work to be presented really well.

11. Glogster
• Glogster is another really good sight to edit
your work on as it allows your work to be set
out in a poster format its really fun and simple
to use.

12. SLIDESHARE
• This is a really good sight as it allows you to
upload power points onto your blog i have
used this the most on my blog as it is easy and
simple to use ,you used PowerPoint then
upload it to slide share then upload to your
blog.

13. excel
• Microsoft excel has been a really good
software to use as it allows me to tally up all
of my results and make graphs showing the
audience a simple way and also helps me tally
things up.
