Research And Planning:
In the research and planning stages of my A2 product, I used websites like YouTube to search and gather examples of music videos in my chosen genre, and advantage of using websites like this is that there is a vast number of videos all in one place and so this means i could carry out my research quickly and use lots of examples to back up my findings.
I also used blogging sites that blogged about my chosen genre to gather information about the genre. Using a blogging site aided me becasue the research had already been done and this greatly reduced the amount of time i had to spend looking for information.I also used publishing sites like Blogger to upload my work all in one place. I had to use Word, PowerPoint, SlideShare and Scribd. to upload all my work to Blogger.
Construction:
For the filming of my music video promo, i used a Panasonic camera, which records in HD and allowed me to upload my video in a decent quality, it also used a memory card which allowed me to store more footage and do more filming in each filming session. Along with the camera i used a monopod to acheive steady stationary shots, moving shots, high and low angle shots i prefered to use the monopod because it allowed me to move AND keep the camera steady, whereas a tripod would only have given me steady stationary shots, and this was essential because a large majority of the shots in my video are moving shots. I also used editing software such as iMovie and Final Cut Pro to acheive smooth and effective editing.
In the production of my digipak i used Photoshop to create the different panles, using photos i had downloaded from Facebook and i used Photoshop again to create the magazine advert.
Evaluation:
I used social sites such as Facebook and YouTube to collect audience responses, using technology helped me because it allowed me to gather and instant response, otherwise i would have had to go out and ask people by hand- which would have taken longer and therefore i would have had fewer responses.
I used document publishing programs like Microsoft PowerPoint and Microsoft Word to help create the documents. Also i used iMovie to create a video of me answering the evaluation questions and Garageband to create a podcast of me talking about one of the questions.
