HOW DID YOU USE MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES IN THE CONSTRUCTION AND

RESEARCH, PLANNING AND EVALUATION STAGES?

Audience Representation

I used PowerPoint to organise my responses to the questions.

I also used it to present the ancillaries next to each other and annotate them.

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

Using YouTube to upload my trailer allowed people everywhere to view it and also allowed me to receive feedback from other people

YouTube

Youtube was useful as it allows me to see how many times the clip has been viewed and allows me to see people’s responses

Using Blogger, I uploaded all of the work I had done to my blog including videos and pictures.

Blogger is simple to use which is useful as you can upload work very easily to the blog.

Blogger also allowed me to put PowerPoint's on my blog via embed links/hyperlinks from such websites like Slide share.

PHOTOSHOPPhotoshop allowed me to edit images and to add effects and build up my front cover for my magazine. Using such tools as magic

wand, it allowed me to get rid of the green screen so I would be left with only me and Ellen and other images I used.

Using the layers I could follow how the main image covers up parts of other images.

IllustratorUsing Illustrator to make the texts that would go on my front cover and poster was affective as it allowed me to add effects and change colours and how the looked.

Also it helped me fit texts into boxes and allowed me to add effects that made it looked more like a magazine such as drop shadow.
