How to Troubleshoot Apps for the Modern Connected Worker
Evaluation Q4
1. Evaluation Q4
How did you use technologies in the research and planning,
construction and evaluation stages?
2. Research & Planning
The Weebly website has helped me
and made it easy to post all my work
such as my research and planning. It
has different ways on how you can
present your work, such as JPEG
images, texts, html links, documents,
YouTube etc.
It also allowed me to add
pages on my blog therefore I
was able to organise my work
in order. This made it easier for
me to find my work as well.
3. Research & Planning
For my research, I used PowerPoint as it was
one of the easiest way to present my work. It
also allows you to have a concise design to
present your work throughout doing so.
In order to present my work on the
Weebly website, I made an account on
Slideshare and uploaded the
presentation that I wanted. I then copied
the embed code and pasted it on the
website so I could display my
presentation.
4. Research & Planning
YouTube allowed me to find existing soap
trailers in order for me to analyse them as
well as to do my preliminary task.
It also allowed me to upload the video to
the Weebly website easily therefore it can
also be viewed easily.
5. Research & Planning
As part of my planning, I have used Word to do
some paperwork before we could film our trailer,
such as the Shooting Script. I then posted this on
the Weebly website.
6. Construction
Equipment we used:
A tripod to
allow the
footage taken
to be steady
and to allow to
pan the
camera from
left to right
A digital video
camera to film
high quality
videos
A DSLR camera
to take pictures
for the ancillary
products at a
high quality for
a professional
look
7. Construction
For both of my ancillary
products, the front cover
magazine and the billboard
poster, I have used Adobe
Photoshop to edit the images
and to create the products.
8. Construction – Magazine Cover
Firstly, I opened the images
we took at a studio that I
wanted to use
I then used the Eraser Tool and the Quick Selection Tool to
get rid off the background
9. Construction – Magazine Cover
I used the Horizontal Type Tool to add
texts on the page. I then double-clicked
the layer of a text to add effects. E.g. for
the title of the magazine I added the
‘Drop Shadow’ effect to add a more
professional look
10. Construction – Magazine Cover
I clicked on the Rectangle Tool and
chose the Line Tool, Ellipse Tool and
Rectangle Tool to make all the shapes
that I wanted on the magazine. I then
used the Path Selection Tool to change
the colour of the shapes.
11. Construction – Magazine Cover
I added the rest of the
images and texts to
make sure that the
whole page is covered
and that I followed the
conventions
I also rotated some of
the texts by selecting
the layer of the text and
going to Edit >
Transform > Rotate
12. Construction – Billboard Poster
Firstly, I edited all the images that I used one by one
before creating the actual poster on Photoshop. I have
done this by using the same tools for erasing the
background as when making my magazine cover, which
is the Easer Tool and the Quick Selection Tool
14. Construction – Billboard Poster
I flipped this image by going to Image
> Image Rotation > Flip Canvas
Horizontal in order for my poster to
look better
I then put all the images together and
added a brick wall background that I got
from the internet by clicking File > Open.
I also then added
the
rest of the texts by
using the Type Tool,
and changed the
colour and added
effects on them.
15. Construction – Trailer
The music I have used in my trailer came from the Incompetech
website. I clicked on Royalty-Free Music and chose ‘intense’ and
‘mysterious’, and then downloaded it.
16. Construction – Trailer
I have added sound effects to my clips in my trailer by finding the
sound effect I wanted on YouTube.
I then copied the link of the video
Then I went on the Video2mp3 website and pasted the link to
convert the video into mp3
17. Evaluation
Prezi is one of the easiest and the most creative
way of presenting your work therefore I have
used it to present one of the evaluation questions.
It has allowed me to present something in a certain way that I want by
adding paths. This enabled me to move from one location to another, e.g.
from a text to an image.
18. Evaluation
It was easy for me to add different frames and to
add arrows to present my work more creatively
by just clicking the Frames & Arrows box.
Prezi has also allowed me to insert images
easily by clicking the Insert box.
19. Evaluation
For my evaluation, I also used PowerPoint to
present my work. It was an easy and simple
way to present screen shots of my work and
to annotate them.
Just like in my research & planning, in order
for me to put it on my blog I had to upload it
on Slideshare and get the embed code so I
could post it on my blog.
20. Evaluation
I have also used the Weebly
website to display my
evaluation work. I made a
page for each evaluation
question so that it was easy to
access.
21. Evaluation
I have used QuickTime Player to do a short screen
recording of how I used iMovie to create my trailer for
one of my evaluation questions.
This has allowed
me to easily
demonstrate
how I used
iMovie and
what I did in
order to create
my trailer.
