Evaluation 4 - How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?


Technology played an important part in our music video production and in promoting our music video. To record our music video we used a camera and a tripod, the tripod was useful because when we where filming we wanted our shots to be dead still so that our music video would look more professional. Below are two images of the cameras that we used to film our music video.

















The Internet played an important part in planning and researching of our music video, the reason Internet was important is because it allowed us to search for different things such as:
*Examples of CD cover
*Example of Digipaks
*Example of Magazine adverts
*Different genre music
*Images etc
Through YouTube and google we where able research different artist and information that we wanted, if we didn't have the Internet we would had to watch music video on the television and also read books. The Internet helped us understand a greater understanding of modern music videos.















For our editing we used the editing software 'Final Cut Pro' on a Mac Computer which is one of the industries leading video editing programs, it allowed us to edit digital videos with amazing results because with 'Final Cut Pro' you know that your video is going to look just as good on the computer as it does on the camera because its set up to work with standard camera definition as HD.



















When we where designing our 'digi pack' and 'magazine covers' we used our own camera to take the pictures. When we edited them we made sure that we used photoshot, which allowed use to air brush, sharpened and edited to make them perfection.
