Question 4: How did you use new media technologies in the construction and

research, planning and evaluation stages?

Evaluation

BloggerOwned and run by Google, it has developed into one of the most

popular blogging websitesIt enabled me to post and display my work and information relating

to my pre-production and production etc.

Adobe Premiere Pro

Created as part of the Adobe franchise, its becoming an industry standard in video editing

softwareBecause of its versatility, I was able to easily compile all the footage together to make my music video, the display and layout made it easier for me to edit clips to the beat of the

music which is a technique used by most music videos. So the program helped me conform to

the conventions of other typical products

Adobe After Effects

After effects is again another Adobe program, this specialises in the manipulation of footage

and creation of special effectsI used the program to stabilise my footage to

make it appear smoother on screen, this is vital otherwise the video would have been

unrecognisable due to the shake from the raw footage. It was a useful tool during the

production stage and I was able to easily export my stabilised footage directly into

Premiere.

YouTubeYoutube is a universal video uploading

platform that provides content for millions of people globally. To be able to review and

display my product it was uploaded onto this website.

I also used it to find examples of other music videos to help me with my research into the

genre. Also due to the expansive range of content, I managed to find some tutorials to

aid me in using After Effect

SlideshareSlideshare works in conjunction with blogger

to display the work I have createdIt enabled me to embed my Word documents

containing information such as Production Schedules and Shot Lists

I also used it to upload my evaluation feedback for question 3 as it also displays the

information with clarity.

Adobe Photoshop

Photoshop is an image editing software that is also highly rated in the industry.This program helped me to create my poster and digipak, using layering techniques to develop the images form. Without Photoshop I don’t think it would be possible to achieve the standard of what I have
