6 NEW TECHNOLOGIES




What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?




RESEARCH

PINTEREST 
Pinterest is a versatile, easy-to-navigate online pin board tool that displays visuals and text linked to websites. I created an account so that I could keep up with interesting, and possibly helpful material to help with our group work.

BLOGGER 
Blogger hosted all my other new technologies at the research and planning stage. As a multi-media social networking tool it allowed me to collate, archive, display and create research and planning with images, videos, sound files and posts that I could share with my group.

TWITTER
We have used Twitter as a group to research and to display our progress. We have made an individual Twitter to feed to our blogs and a group Twitter on our overall group project. You can find our group Twitter feed here.

PREZI 
I have used Prezi to show my distribution work. It is an interactive slide show. You can find my Prezi on Audience here.


YOUTUBE
We have used YouTube for research and we have also watched various videos on Media based content. Claremont has its own YouTube channel. You can find my YouTube channel here.




PLANNING 

WHATS APP I used WhatsApp to keep in touch when planning with my group.

GOOGLE DOCS Google Docs is a useful online software that was utilized by my
group to access documents that we all needed to work on. It helped us to create our Shot List easier as we had contribution from the whole group. You can see Google Docs here.


TRELLO We used Trello to make up to date ‘To Do’ lists. This was helpful as it allowed an accessible easy to reach list that we could see what was needed to do.
You can see my Trello page here.

EMAZE Like Slideshare, Emaze presents work visually with beautiful graphical tools and accepts PowerPoint uploads.
You can see my Emaze page here. 

MOBILE PHONE
My group used mobile phones to communicate when we weren’t with each other. It allowed us to speak to each other when working from home, improving our efficiency.

 CONSTRUCTION

DIGITAL CAMERA Canon 550D, 600D

FINAL CUT PRO X Our new video software editing program. Final Cut Pro X gave us an advantage over other groups as we had a better quality editing software than another such as (iMovie). This is because it has a lot more useful plugins that let us create different effects.

ADOBE PHOTOSHOP
We used Photoshop because we created our poster using it. It allowed us to edit the images in fields such as brightness and contrast, as well as allowing us to overlay text. We used photoshop specifically to edit our poster and to create this 'Nine' image/logo.

FACEBOOK
We used Facebook as a group to gain attention to the project and to broadcast our work to friends and family.


ADOBE AFTER AFFECTS We have used Adobe’s ‘After Affects’ to create different effects and intro’s to add into our production.

EVALUATION

SNAPCHAT We used Snapchat to present out work to each other when we had finished it, to gain opinions and thoughts about the editing work that had been done.

YOUTUBE
We have used YouTube for  inviting feedback on our own video work. Claremont has its own YouTube channel.

  1. Excellent and appropriate use of a wide variety of new technologies in the research, planning, construction and evaluation of your production. Evidence of a variety of competently deployed presentational platforms such as Emaze, Prezi, FB, Twitter, Prezi,GoogleDocs. Well organized and illustrated response.
