During the planning stage, the document author used websites like YouTube and similar sites to research band products and designs. Adobe Premiere and Photoshop were used to learn the technologies and create preliminary tasks. A blog was maintained throughout the project using Blogger. During filming, a camera and steadycam were used to get close footage of the band. Adobe Premiere and Photoshop were used to edit video and design work. In post-production, YouTube and Blogger were used to share the work, and After Effects was used to improve the final products. Prezi and Slideshare were utilized for the evaluation stage, though the author wished to use more technologies.

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

2.  During the research and planning stage I used many
different technologies to help plan my video,
digipak and poster. I used websites such as YouTube
to research similar real products by other bands,
and similar websites to research similar digipaks
and posters.
 Also, whilst creating preliminary tasks, I often used
Adobe Premiere pro and Adobe Photoshop to help
learn how to use the technologies preparing for the
final tasks.
 Throughout all of the stages I have continued to use
Blogger to create an on running blog throughout the
year.

3.  During the first day of filming I used
the camera below, along with the
steadycam. This allowed me to keep a
focus on the band that I wanted to
keep, as if they were friends and it
was a ‘fly on the wall’ video, as I could
get as close as possible to the band.
 Whilst editing the footage I used
Adobe Premier Pro, and to edit and
finalise my ancillary tasks I used
Adobe Photoshop. These were the
programs I had been using in
preliminary tasks, and I was used to
using them so I stuck to what I knew.

construction stage

4.  During the post production stage, I
used YouTube and Blogger to share
my products and continue the
blog. To finalise the products I used
the same products, using after
effects to improve the look.
 Whilst doing the Evaluation stage I
have used two technologies, Prezi
and Slideshare. I would have liked
to have used more technologies,
but I was unable to.

5. In conclusion, I think I used a good variety of technologies
throughout my project, although I would have liked to have
added more.
