EVALUATION - QUESTION 4

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

For research we mostly used the web. We looked at music videos on youtube and band websites of facebook and myspace. We used a still camera to show evidence of our process. Such as timelines and storyboards
Editing on adobe premier pro allowed us to capture our footage in blocks. We were able to edit in a non-linear style and were able to make different timelines to put different parts of our music video on. We were also able to add a lot of effects such as 'black and white, contrast, brightness, dissolve, fade to black' to make our music video look glossy and professional. The only disadvantage of using HD cameras was that capturing took longer and we were not able to see what we were capturing on the big screen, so we had to look through the small camera screen to know when to stop capturing. The Adobe programme would also become very slow or would not open with sound which was a problem we couldn't overcome.
