6 NEW TECHNOLOGIES

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

My group and I have used many media platforms to construct our product through research, planning and construction of the main media product. We have used media platforms like Twitter and Youtube to research certain ways distributors and large film companies allow audiences to become aware of their film. We have used other smaller media platforms like, Blogger and Slideshare to present our work on research during the process of the group researching. We have then used places like trello to pin ideas onto a board where the whole group can see making it easy for the whole group to plan things together in an organised space which is easy to navigate and simple to use. For the construction we have used certain software and equipment to create our media product, we have used editing software like IMovie and Adobe Aftereffects to merge the filming we have done using equipment like a Canon camera and a Manfrotto tripod.

TRELLO Trello is a fantastic platform that I used when organising my work. It allowed me to tick off what tasks I had completed, as well as see which tasks I still need to do. Here is the post

PADLET I used padlet to help me and my group plan our movie opening where we could all post up scripts and ideas that we could all copy and past onto our blogs
