The document discusses the various media technologies and software used at different stages of a project. Photoshop was used to create ancillary texts and explore graphic design. Final Cut Pro was used for editing the 336-shot music video due to familiarity with its effects and transitions. Quicktime allowed previewing of exported video. Google was used for research, and YouTube, Blogger, and Prezi were used for uploading and presenting coursework. Survey Monkey conducted audience research. Storage devices like SD cards and a hard drive backed up files. Charging devices kept equipment powered. An iMac was used for editing due to familiarity with Apple software.

How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages? Software Photoshop - I used this program in order for it to enable me to create both my ancillary texts (Digipack and Poster) This program is extremely beneficial as it allowed me to truly explore artistic and graphic areas for my products in where I did not think were possible. For example, it
allowed me to enhance the face and apply a low poly design to it. Being able to enhance colour, contrast and create new options for my overall product is extremely important, and this is why I used Photoshop. Final Cut Pro - The reason I have chosen to use Final Cut Pro is because, it is where I believe I can be as creative as I can get with the tools at hand. Being familiar with apple software really does help when editing a music video which has 336 individual shots. Although the editing process is quite arduous, I do enjoy it as, I have studied this program and therefore allows me to make my music video reach its full capabilities. With numerous effects, transitions, texts, typography and speed arrangements,
it really is a key element in the making of my music video. Quicktime - This software allowed me to be able to view the exported video before being uploaded to social networking/streaming websites. Online Resources Google - This search engine was my primary go to resource as it retrieves media, statistics and other media in order for me to apply to my research and planning. Youtube - This video sharing website is the most popular and easiest to
function to upload media to. It is also beneficial for my music video research and to my planning. Blogger - This website is where I uploaded all my coursework throughout the entire year. Prezi - I used this program in order to present certain coursework tasks in an easily navigational form. It also allows sections of whatever is being written to be separated into adequate amounts and relevant sections. Survey Monkey - I used this questionnaire website in order to finish my audience research tasks.
Storage Equipment Two 16GB SD Cards - I had to SD cards with me as the definition on the camera I filmed on was high and with the fps, it would take up more storage space. It would also allow me to transfer clips that Id filmed to transfer them onto a Mac computer. Two 16GB Memory Sticks - I had also used two to enable myself to easily have a second backup of my files and to also save any extra media necessary. My Book External Hard Drive 3TB - I would use this as my primary source of back up for all my files.
Charging iPhone 5 Charger - This was to power my mobile phone just incase I needed to film any different type of shots or retrieve information whilst filming. Nikon D3200 Battery Charger - This was the most essential charging device, as it helped charge my camera throughout the entirety of the filming process.
Editing Hardware iMac - The reason I used this computer is because I am more familiar with Apple products and, I understand how to use their applications and software. It is where I believe I can be my most creative. The processors are often powerful enough to speed up the editing process too.
Filming Equipment Nikon D3200 - This camera is my only form of high enough quality video recording. The reason I chose to film on this DSLR is because it allowed me to film slow motion clips at a high enough fps in order for it to then be slowed down in Final Cut and to turn out as a smooth slow motion shot instead of it turning out shaky or uneven. iPhone 5 - I decided to use my phone to get some more difficult shots in tighter areas where my camera would not be able to fit.
Moment Lens - This lens is adaptable to iPhone cameras. It allows the cinematographer to get equally appealing shots as an average DSLR without the hassle of a large lens and ease of portability. Camera 際際滷r - This allowed me to get shots predominantly across the drum kit in a smooth fashion which in return, gave those shots a much more professional look and feel. Tripod - For the majority of my music video, the shots were handheld. But for the effect of the CCTV footage, I decided to place the camera in a sturdy and crooked angle from a lower or higher point of view.
