Evaluation question 4

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

When we were constructing, researching and planning and evaluating our music video. We used all these types of media technology; Imacs, Final Cut Express, Blogger, YouTube, Google, HD camera, Monopod and a Tripod. 

This is a screen grab from the program Final Cut Express that we use to edit our video footage. When using this we are able to get rid of parts of our filming that weren't needed and were able to move parts of our video around. By using this it meant we did not need to film it in the order it was going to be shown in the final video. We uploaded the filmed footage from the HD camera that we used onto Final Cut Express so that it could be edited easily. This was to make sure that that our video was so that it looked professional, we also used a Tripod and a Monopod. All the editing that was done was carried out on the schools Imac computers.

We mainly used Google to conduct our research on our artist and the song we was using. The group also used websites such as Facebook and Twitter show our video so it gathered a wider interest so that we could receive audience feedback. 

The last website that we used in our final process to get our video out there was to upload it to YouTube so our video would spread across the internet. YouTube is the most popular way to show videos any where on the internet. This will hopefully give our video to a wider audience and to get it more interest and hopefully give the artist of the song some credit as well. 

Using these forms of media technologies has made our video a success.
