TECHNOLOGIES IN THE
CONSTRUCTION
AND RESEARCH, PLANNING
AND EVALUATION STAGES?

2. HOW DID YOU USE NEW MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES IN
THE CONSTRUCTION AND RESEARCH, PLANNING
AND EVALUATION STAGES?
 During the construction stage and more specifically the making of
the music video, I used many different technological devices in
order to make the video more appealing to the audience.
Obviously, I used a digital camera to film the video on. This was a
key element in the making of my video and it had a clear image
which was vital in filming for my video as it meant that I could get
different shots from different angles and from further away
meaning that there was a nice variation of shots.

THE CONSTRUCTION AND RESEARCH, PLANNING
AND EVALUATION STAGES?
 During the research stages, I used my iPhone to take pictures of
the meeting we had before filming the video and I then uploaded
these pictures on my Blogger account. I also used a tripod to hold
the camera steady and it also allowed me to change the angles of
the shots as I could tilt the camera. This is also a part of the
planning stages as it is something I did prior to making the video.

THE CONSTRUCTION AND RESEARCH, PLANNING
AND EVALUATION STAGES?
 Throughout the duration of the construction stage, I had a lot to do
on the iMac. When I was uploading my footage, I used the
programme "Adobe Premiere Pro CS6" which enabled me to edit
my footage as I was ordering it. I was able to cut, fade, and
remove the sound from my original footage and replace it with the
track that I was using.

5. HOW DID YOU USE NEW MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES IN THE
CONSTRUCTION AND RESEARCH, PLANNING AND
EVALUATION STAGES?
 In the evaluation phase, I used different websites such as
Slideshare, Pinterest, and Prezi to make my answers more
interesting. If they were just on my Blogger account, they would
have looked very plain.

6. HOW DID YOU USE NEW MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES IN
THE CONSTRUCTION AND RESEARCH, PLANNING
AND EVALUATION STAGES?
 I felt that the technology that I used in the construction, research,
planning, and evaluations stages were instrumental in making my
music video the way I wanted it to be. I was able to film the shots
that I wanted This is because due to the software I used, I could
capture the emotion from the video and also I could also capture
the obvious contrast between the couple having a happy, loving
relationship, and the sour, tough to handle part of the relationship.
This was something that I was very keen to include in my film as
the lyrics express this difficult part of the relationship and I wanted
to be sure that the footage matched the lyrics entirely.

THE CONSTRUCTION AND RESEARCH, PLANNING
AND EVALUATION STAGES?
 I feel that overall, the four different technologies that I used were
effective in matching the footage to the lyrics of the song. The
technologies that I used were all digital. The programme was
obviously digital as it was on the iMac which is also digital
technology and the camera was a digital camera meaning that it
was another digital technology. My iPhone is obviously a type of
digital technology it is something that I used when making the
video as I used it to take pictures of the location that I was filming
in.
