Evaluation Q6 - What have you learned about technologies from the process of constructing this product

Blogger - Before this, I had no previous experience of using any previous blogging website. I've learnt how to embed videos, prezis, slideshare's and more. To actually embed these, I had to learn how to use the HTML, having to copy the codes from websites so I code them into the blogs. Blogger has become a fundamental part of the process, with me having to constantly keep it up to date. 






Youtube- I had a lot of experience with Youtube before this. However, only watching video, not uploading. I had to set up my own channel so I could upload things such as my Preliminary task. It was also helpful in research, when watching back scenes for my research posts.





















Imac- I've never used an imac before, so at the beginning I found it really hard to get used to as I've only ever used a windows computer. I now feel 100x more confident on an imac and believe I'm good at using it's software now, but I still need a bit more time and practice 






















Popplet/Prezi/Slideshare/Infogram/Emaze- I've never used these software's before, but after using them for my evaluation questions I'd definitely use them again. They were really useful and were a much more creative solution than some boring blogs. I wasn't a massive fan of emaze. Popplet and infogram were my favourites.


















Camera and Tripod- I had no qualms using this equipment because I have previously used it in GCSE, so I was confident with it














Adobe premiere pro- I was new to this, but I grasped it quite quickly. The only thing i struggled with was importing/ exporting and finding effects such as 'fade'















Evaluation Q5 - How did you attract/ address your audience?

First, Second, Third day and fourth day of Editing

First day of editing - Friday 13th February 

The fist day of editing i was unfortunately not in, but we had prepared before hand. I told the team to make sure they upload everything and sort through the shots they liked. I got told by Jake that they had done this and that the team overall was happy with the shots we got. Jake also told me that they hadn't decided which order we was going to edit. I also got told that Beata was responsible for a lot of the editing and there was a total 382 shots.

Second Day of editing - Tuesday 17th February

We finally starting sorting shots together and got to about halfway through editing. Again, Beata was mostly responsible while we made important decisions.

Third day of editing - Tuesday 3rd March

So we just carried on like Tuesday the 17th, while I helped update some of the planning blogs. Me and Afsana have focused mostly on updating blogs while Jake and Beata helped each other editing.

Fourth of editing - Friday 6th March

Today I added more input. Telling Beata some shots I thought should be shorter etc.
