The document discusses the various technologies the author learned to use while completing a project. These included slide creation software like Slideshare and Prezzi, photo editing with Photoshop, blogging using Blogger, and using different cameras. The author found Photoshop and Prezzi challenging but enjoyed using more straightforward tools like PowerPoint, their phone camera, and Blogger. Through using these technologies, the author gained skills in producing professional-looking media products and learned the full process of constructing and documenting such a project.

1. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of
constructing this project?
During this project, I have learnt how to use a wide range of technologies to apply in my final outcome. The
software's I have used are Slideshare, Prezzi, Blogger, Mobile Phone, Camera, and Photoshop.
To create my analysis of my front cover/contents page, I decided to use PowerPoint rather than Emuse
because I found it easier and not as complex to use. By using PowerPoint, my work looked better because I
knew how to navigate the program.
By using Photoshop, I was trained by the teachers to understand what to do. This allowed me to add in new
features into my front cover and contents page with ease. I found Photoshop challenging to use, mainly
because I have not used it before. This program challenged my use of technology which I found useful as now
I have skills to use in the future.
Another type of technology I used was my camera on my phone and the cameras from college. The camera
from college was a bit complex to use as each feature on the camera was explained for its use. I found that
using my camera on my phone was too simple, yet it had nice quality. For the location recce, I decided to use
my camera on my phone because it is more portable and the dimensions were easier to work with.
To upload all of my work and documents, I used Slideshare. I like Slideshare because it was easy to navigate
and the documents you wanted would appear on the blog nicely.
I really did not enjoy using Prezzi as most of the program was difficult to use. I found that the theme of the
presentations did not suit the work we were doing and a simple PowerPoint presentation could suit it better. I
think I would only use Prezzi for a presentation aimed at a younger audience as the appearance looks inviting
for adolescents.
Finally, I have used blogger to show all of this on my blog. I don’t mind blogger as it is easy to use because the
layout is simple. I used blogger for my production diary and my features on my blog.
By using these technologies I have learnt that making a media product takes more than one program. I have
learnt many skills on how to produce a product that looks professional. Also by using each program, I have
learnt the actual process of constructing the product and documenting it meanwhile.
