Evaluation

Question 4: How did you use media technologies in the construction, planning, research and evaluation stages?

Internet

• This was used for our initial research and planning: video sites, websites for short film companies, magazines, posters to research each medium, film audience information, genre and narrative information was easily accessible thought the internet.

Cameras & EditingThe use of hi-def cameras allowed us to create a film with a more pleasing look. HD storage gave us immediate uploading (log and transfer) into Final Cut Pro this is a professional piece of software used by the film industry and allowed us to edit our film and incorporate music and other editing techniques.

Sound Editing • Although we were able to change the pitch of the sound during the editing

process, as well as this we asked permission over the internet to use pre recorded music.

• For other sounds and music during our film we used Garage band to create a musical score.

Adobe CS4

• Allowed us to produce print work. Using this professional package e.g. Photoshop enabled us to emulate real products and refine our poster work and magazine articles.

Presentations• By using simple programs like Power Point we were able to present our work in a professional

way.• As well as this we developed our skills by using a simple internet program called Prezi

Blog’s

• By using blogger we were able to present our work over the internet as well as this embed videos, slide shares and Prezi’s .
