I used media technologies throughout all stages of the production of our media product. One of the most valuable media platforms was the internet. Without this I would not have been able to research and plan efficiently. It allowed me to explore media conventions for our particular genre through platforms such as YouTube. Also, it enabled me to gain lots of information about the industry, which would have been extremely difficult had it not been for the internet. Yahoo was another useful device for research as it allowed us to ask a large amount of people with minimal effort.
Another way the internet was extremely useful was through social networking sites. This allowed us to plan and share information effectively, meaning out of lesson times we were able to use our time more efficiently and made sure we all could contact each other at any point.
Since we used Apple Macs on our project last year, we were aware of how to use the software. However, for our ancillary tasks, editing photographs was a new experience. We used IPhoto to edit the photo for our album cover and website allowing us to edit with precision meaning thus ensuring the outcome we had longed for.
YouTube and Facebook were vital media platforms for the evaluation of our media product. It enabled us to gain a large amount of feedback (mentioned in my audience feedback post). This meant that we could see if we accessed our target market effectively. We found that the majority of comments were posted by consumers who fell under the expected demographic.
