4. How have you used new media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

 We used a website called blogspot.com to document all of our coursework and research.

Youtube has been a key source for researching music videos, digipaks and theories.

I used google as my main search engine, everything I do online usually goes through google.

We used facebook to get audience feedback, we thought this would be the most effective way to recieve feedback as it is the most popular social networking site at the moment.






SDR- S26 - The SDR-S26 is the camera we used to film most of the clips for our videa, we also used equipment such as tripods to help us get the right shots and angles.

HD SD card- We used a HD SD card to save the clips we filmed, by saving them to HD SD card instead of just the camera, it was easier to transfer them into the laptops to edit them as all we had to do was insert the card into the laptop.

Windows movie maker - We used windows movie maker to do our animatics which is images of our storyboard to the music, this would help us with the order and know how our video is going to look like, we came across afew problems whilst doing this such as, getting all the timings right so it fits in with the music also trying to save it so we can put it on our blogs which unfortunatly didnt work.
Memory stick- we used a memory stick to keep all of our work and research together so if one person needed to upload it we'd all be able to access it easily.

iPods- we used iPods when we first started planning, we used it to listen to the song and sort out the timings for each line so we could see how long we would need certain shots to be.
