EVALUATION PLANNING - Q3+4

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


  • State of the art video cameras - used to film all of our footage and memory cards used as storage for our filming. Learnt how to alter settings for better filming quality e.g: AF/MF, zoom, light/dark toggle etc.
  • Still cameras - used to capture images during filming etc
  • Blogger - used to record process of research, planning, production, evaluation. New blog - post - update and so on - adding labels, adding pictures/videos/html's
  • Apps & websites used in conjunction - powerpoint presentation, prezi, slideshare, gif creator - used to create slideshows/presentations/moving images. Prezi very helpful for creating pitch. Slideshows useful when displaying images from filming etc.
  • Social networking - Twitter/instagram used to keep teachers updated on filming progress
  • Internet - Youtube in particular used a lot during research period 
  • Photoshop - used for production of ancillary products - digipak and magazine advert. Used to put together products from scratch, became familiar with how to insert images, text and edit these components to create structure
  •  Final cut pro - used for editing of footage and creation of music video - special effects such as slow and fast motion, colour altering, cutting and shortening of clips, reversing footage
  • Created an animatic using Photoshop

What have you learned from your audience feedback?

  • Overall reaction to video in cinema was positive - not much excitement until the end due to slow pace
  • Learnt that editing and performance have the most impact on audience opinion
