1. PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION
In the planning of our media
production we used media technology.
We used apple Mac computers, on
which we researched existing media
texts for inspiration, and to find out
what the genre codes and conventions
were.
For this, we used Google images, in
order to find digipacks of indie
bands, and YouTube, to view music
videos of indie and pop artists. We
used software products such as
Microsoft PowerPoint in order to
display what information we found.
2. For our planning, we first made a storyboard by hand. We then filmed the storyboard
using a 5D mark ii Canon DSLR camera, and then put it together and added music using
windows movie maker.
We also did practise shoots, using the same Canon DSLR, and edited them using final cut
pro.
All our planning and research we put on our blogs on blogspot.com. This helped us to
keep track of what we had done and what we had left to do.
3. Evaluation
I asked used media technology in order to gain feedback of our product in the
evaluation stages. We put our music video onto facebook for people to comment
on, and this was a quick and easy way of letting lots of people see our video, and
finding out their opinions on it.
4. For our evaluation, we used a Sony Camcorder, to film some parts of our evaluation; part of our question one and
question four. We then edited them using final cut pro.
For my evaluation, I also used Prezi to present my work in a more interesting way, and SlideShare to make my
PowerPoint's accessible on the internet. To make the overall presentation of my evaluation nicer, I used the
website www.wix.com to present my work, and I linked in all of my other pieces of evaluation, such as the videos
via YouTube links.
