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

Research and Planning Preliminary Task – Digital HD Camcorder used to record the task and Vimeo to upload the video onto a site without it being blocked due to copyright Theorists – To research into the different theorists relating to music videos I used Google. To present these ideas on my blog I have used Prezi and Vimeo. Existing Music Videos/Student Work – To analyse music videos and music video director’s work I used YouTube to access the videos. Case Study/Independent Research – All done using the Internet Audience Research - Video uploaded onto Youtube

Construction Song Choices – To access our songs we used Youtube Moonboard/Lyric Analysis – I used Canva to make the layout of the information presentable Screen Tests/Props/Costumes Video – Used a Digital HD Camcorder to record the auditions and then YouTube to upload the video Location Recce – Some of the bird’s eye view shots were done using Google Maps Shot List – Constructed on Microsoft Excel Inspiration for Ancillary Texts – To produce draft versions BeFunky was used

Construction Storyboard – BeFunky was used to pair all the images together Practice Shots – Digital HD Camcorder Film Schedule – Made on Canva Filming – Nikon D3300 Camera Editing – Sony Vegas Pro and Windows Live Movie Maker Digipak – Canva Poster – BeFunky

Evaluation Question 1 – Canva Question 2 – Prezi Question 3 – PiktoChart Question 4 – Microsoft PowerPoint

Review Digital HD Camcorder – It was useful for filming some scenes such as the dance scenes however the quality wasn’t perfect . Vimeo – I used Vimeo to upload videos and although it allowed me to upload videos without them getting blocked for copyright it was a hassle to upload onto the site and not as easy to share/access as YouTube. Google Maps – Effective in getting the bird eye shots I wasn’t able to capture PowerPoint/Excel – Helpful with presenting different pieces of information BeFunky/Canva – Both very useful to making what I presented nice and editing images Sony Vegas Pro – Excellent for the editing and hugely beneficial however access to it wasn’t 24/7 making it hard to edit at times. Windows Live Movie Maker – Easy to access and edit however not advanced
