How did you use new media technologies in the construction, research, planning and evaluation

stages?

ResearchMicrosoft PowerPoint has been used throughout my music video research to present my findings methods. The first research I carried out using PowerPoint was for the music video director analysis in which I chose Marc Webb.

I also used PowerPoint during the music video analysis‘ because they give the research structure and order, in an easy to read and digest display. As well as on the youth subculture task in which I divided each page into a different subculture.

In order to present these PowerPoint presentations on Blogger, I uploaded them onto SlideShare and copied the embed code to my A2 blog.

Research:I also carried out research in the form of practice use of cameras and production (stop-motion and animation) which allowed me to try out what form of filming I wanted to use for my overall project.

A quick video; trying stop motion

Research:The use of the internet has proven very beneficial

throughout this media project.

Planning:

Using these methods, I have the chance to progress and change my work as the planning continued without starting again.

Planning: online tutorials

Planning: I’ve used the new media in a wide variety of ways during the planning of my music video, here are a few more examples.
