Evaluation Question 4

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

Throughout the construction, research, planning and the evaluating part of the production of the media product and ancillary texts I used a lot of media technologies to complete the tasks. For example I have used;




Radio- We listened to the radio so that we could identify key codes and conventions that we would need to follow to ensure that our radio advert sounded professional.

Windows Movie Maker- I used Windows Movie Maker to make little videos for my evaluation.

DVD Player- We used a DVD Player to watch a DVD that we would take clipings from to use in our documentary.





YouTube- We used YouTube to get archive footage that we wanted to use in our documentary but due to the bad quality of the footage we decided not to use it.






Voice Recorder- We used a voice recorder to make sure that the sound was picked up so that it was at a good level to have on our documentary.



Video Camera- We used a video camera to capture all of the footage that we needed for our documentary.





Television- We used a TV to watch documentaries on which was part of our research, this abled us to make notes and help us to create our media product to look professional.




Tripod- We used a tripod to make sure that the video camera stayed at the same position all the way through filming our interviews and footage, ithelped to keep the camera steady, and it abled us to keep the camera shots smooth.





Tape- We used a tape which was used to store all of our footage on to when using the video recorder.







Photoshop- We used Photoshop to edit the pictures that we had taken for our print advert, we also edited the Channel 4 logo on there and this is were we made the print ad.




Internet- We used the internet to carry out our research, looking into Channel 4 and the history of denim. We also used it to get pictures that we would use for the documentary.





A Computer- The computer was used so that we could carry out our research, we also used it to transfer and store our documentary onto.





A Camera- We used a camera to take still pictures for our print advert, we also used the camera to take pictures of people watching our documentary, listening to our radio ad and looking at the print ad, filling in our questionnaire so that it could be included in our audience feedback





Adobe Premiere- This programme was used to import footage that we had captured and edit it, we also imported pictures that were not used, we imported music to it and this was were our documentary was produced.





Adobe Audition- This was used to import and edit sound that we were using to create the radio advert. This is the programme that we produced our radio ad in.


Ice-Radio Studio- We used the Ice-Radio Studio to record our voice over for the documentary and radio advert, this made the sound more clear as we used media technology to make sure it was at a good quality to use in our work.


Lead- We used leads to connect the video camera and the camera to the computer to transfer the footage and pictures that we needed to the computer.


In conclusion all of these new media technologies helps us to produce a media product that reaches a high quality. All of these contribute to making the product look like a professional media product.
