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

ConstructionWe used Adobe Premiere for the construction of the music video as well as creating the animatic before hand.

Such a high performance software such as Premiere allowed us to edit footage of incredibly high quality and large size.

We used a Canon 400D in order to film out music video in higher quality like other professional, media products of the same genre.

ResearchWe used YouTube to research music videos of a similar genre by searching similar artists. We also used YouTube to facilitate uploading our own music video just like the media products we were researching.

We also used SurveyMonkey in order to branch out to a wider audience for their feedback towards the chosen song and their opinions/perspectives of it. By being accessible online, this meant a vaster amount of people could access and take part in the Survey. It was also cost effective.

PlanningWe used Microsoft Word in order to create the call sheet, kit list, and shooting schedules to plan the preparation of our music video.

This format of planning meant once uploaded to tumblr it was easily accessible by all those who were needed, and the equipment needed to film.

We used google maps to find locations.

Planning cont.

We used google images and Microsoft powerpoint to construct a moodboard for our music video to convey the theme of our music video: conflict.

Evaluation

We used Prezi to create our evaluations, it was free and accessible online. This was similar for SlideShare but it meant we could upload powerpoint presentations as a whole.
