How did you use media technologies in the construction, research, planning and evalution stage?


Planning:

I used the aid of youtube once again, but this time i used it to finalise how i may use a shot or maybe to show my point my a member of the group if i was trying to explain a convention and how we can incorporate it into our music video.
In addition, i also did a practise session with photoshop, i took some pictures of a class member behind a big white screen and upload the pictures to photoshop. I played about with nearly all the functions to give myself a good idea of how to use it and i also noted the effects that i thought would be effective for our poster/digi pack. Ive already uploaded my final product of the practise session to blogger.


I also recorded around 20 different shots and uploaded them to final cut to practise of them as well, i found out the importance of certain shots and in addition got to play with the camera settings, like the focus pull. I learnt simple things such as the 'blade' tool and the chroma key function, however i decided to take it further and play around with the distort function.
The reasoned i filmed these specific shot was so i could know how to do them and if i thought to incorperate any into my




Finally, we used a 'white screen' to practice on rather them a green screen becuase the school didnt have one yet, but we learnt how to take out the background and add one it, as well as the importance of setting up the 'green screen' correctly.

  1. Re upload your practice photoshop/finalcut products of create a link to that post so we can see them. Also you should separate the final cut and photoshop paragraph and expand on them because you've missed out the basic media technologies you've used such as the camera, still camera, tripod and figrig! Add some images of these as well, you blog is very boring.
