Most media technologies I used were demonstrated in blog posts.
In the research stages I used Embedded videos, Slide share, prezzi and
even time toast to publish my work online:
During the construction of the music video, we use flip cams to capture
video footage includes filming reviews and feedback. We then used
programs like camtasia to edit and publish them. The two main
technologies used was the high quality camera and final cut pro, because
without these the video would have not been produced.
Twitter was also used to try keep in contact with our teachers when out
and about filming in our different locations.

The internet was also used very heavily for the research stage. Youtube
was a very useful website since we could look at previous music videos
and even learnt editing techniques for our own personal use.
As mentioned before Final Cut Pro was very important,
we used colour correction a lot when editing our music
video which made the colouring look much better and
gave the video a more professional feel.

approached our music video and concept. They seem to feel we managed to keep
our video urban without contradicting any conventions.
Something which drew attention to our video was our synergy product the rose:
Our audience loved the camera work we did when our artist Karma picked the
rose off the wall and the video came to life. ( From black and white into colour).
We also repeated this at the end of the video in reverse. Whish showed karma
putting the rose back on the wall and the video when from colour back to black
and white.

Another thing I learnt from audience feedback was the idea that a lot of
people liked the voiceover we produced in the beginning of the music
video. Our artist Karma was having a conversation on the phone as the
song faded in.
Our audience also kept commenting on our
high angle base track. There was
something about it which drew peoples
attention towards it. Perhaps it was the
way Karma was looking into the camera
