Question 3

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

To get to our final video we had to do a lot of research and planning this involved looking at youtube videos  so that we could recognise the codes and conventions of different genres. 

Then we used Blogger to blog all all planning and initial ideas. This is where all our work was placed. 

This is a screen shot that i took to show how i used Photoshop to create my background. i chose a blank screen and made it orange, after i went to the menu and went to shapes and patterns where i found the pattern which i used. I dragged it onto the page and manipulated it to the colour and size that i thought was right. Once i had done this i added colour into the pattern once this was done i flattened the layers and had my final background

I used Quark to actually make my final CD cover. I added images to a blank page and then added text to it to create the final cover. Also dragged my photoshop images into Quark to complete my project

We used JVC cameras to film our our work, we used the microphone and camera lights to enhance the sound on the camera lightened the shot which were too dark. We also used memory cards to save We also used still cameras to take pictures of us as were were filming and to take the pictures for actual CD covers themselves. 

This is my anamatic to create the story board for my initial idea for my video. This was done using the programme Storyboard
