Evaluation Question 3: How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

During the course of my project I have used and experimented with a range of media technologies for each project stage including research, planing and evaluation. Bellow show some pictures of what we used.

ITEMS USED FOR FILMING

The tripod was used to keep video camera steady, the battery was used to give power to video camera and video camera was used to film.

Memory cards used to save our video and picture content to use on the MACs.

Still camera used to take location shots etc for digipak and advertisement. 

ITEMS USED FOR EDITING

MAC used for everything (heart of the project) for editing, digipak and advertisement.

Hardrive and SD card converter used to transfer data via USB from still/video camera to MAC. 

This shows my digpak being edited on Photoshop elements 4 in which I used several layers and effects to compose with the magic wand tool. 

I used the QuarkXPress picture frame tool to piece together my digipak pictures after editing the pictures on Photoshop Elements 4.

We used final cut pro but differently to editing the thriller video, because we used a razor tool to keep the video in synch.  

ITEMS USED FOR FINAL STAGES

Google and Youtube used by typing in the artists name and song in the search box for research, and blogger used as a digital dairy to record my progress. 

Vimeo used to upload final video for people to see and give feedback.

Screen on the green was the cinema used to view my final video to everybody to receive feedback and comments.
