1. How did you use new media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages
2. Online Tools During the research of this project I used: Google: in order to search anything I wasn’t sure of, including finding more information about Joy Division YouTube: was very useful. I used it to watch music video’s that I could get ideas from and also to upload my own videos for others to watch and for me to be able to post onto the blog.
3. Online music review Magazines: to get more ideas on what music video or artists to use or adapt from in order to produce our own Slideshare: was used in order for me to upload my typed up documents from Microsoft word and PowerPoint onto the blog to give an interactive version of some of my work.
4. www.blogger.com:This is the website in which we used to make our blog. All our coursework is posted on this site
5. Hardware Television: Used the television to watch music channels such as MTV Base and movies such as ‘Clockwork Orange’ in order to get more inspiration for our music video They were a member of a gang and went around causing havoc, wore the same clothes to symbolise unity. We also were portrayed as a gang in the video and wore the same clothes while causing havoc and messing about
6. We used the Sony HandyCam DCR-VX2100E in order to shoot our music video. We shot plenty of handheld shots with this in order to fit in with the retro, edgy look that we was trying to accomplish. We used a tripod in order to shoot still, steady shots. For example when Marwo was jumping from wall to wall and our Anton Corbijndeication shots.
7. Steadicam: this handheld steadicam was used by us in order to shoot smoothly while moving the camera. This was very tricky to do at first butt after a few attempts I was quite good at it, and shot Marwo’s close up shot using it. Motorola defy: I used this phone in order to record my interview. It has a 5mp camera with flash and was very easy to transfer my recordings to the computer.
8. Dell laptop Inspiron 1750: this is the laptop I used to record myself evaluating my project. It was easy to do as I didn’t need to hold anything and the recoding was automatically on the computer, so I didnt need to transfer it from device to device.
9. Software Final cut pro: We used this software from an Apple Mac in order to edit the music video. Its simple design and useful layout made it easier to learn how to use this software and to edit with a professional finish.
10. (Dell webcam central): the in-built software on the Dell Inspiron 1750 in which I used to record myself. It was very easy to operate and had one touch record and stop button.
11. Microsoft Office word: I used this software in order to type up documents that I didn't want to post directly onto the blog. I also used it to type up my questionnaire, print it out and distribute for people to complete. Microsoft Office PowerPoint:I used this in order to make slideshows. This is because presenting some of my work like this was more convenient for me and also more interesting to look at.
