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

2. Research
Microsoft PowerPoint has been used throughout my
music video research to present my findings methods.
The first research I carried out using PowerPoint was for
the music video director analysis in which I chose Marc
Webb.
I also used PowerPoint during the music video
analysis‘ because they give the research structure
and order, in an easy to read and digest display. As
well as on the youth subculture task in which I
divided each page into a different subculture.
In order to present these PowerPoint
presentations on Blogger, I uploaded
them onto SlideShare and copied the
embed code to my A2 blog.

3. Research:
I also carried out research in the form of practice use of cameras and
production (stop-motion and animation) which allowed me to try out
what form of filming I wanted to use for my overall project.
The ABC task Animation task
A quick video; trying stop motion

4. Research:
The use of the internet has proven very beneficial
throughout this media project.
TV Research

5. Planning:
Using these methods, I have the chance to
progress and change my work as the
planning continued without starting again.

6. Planning: online tutorials
Photoshop stop motion tutorial
wikiHow stop motion tutorial
Origami bird tutorial (scene later
deleted from video)

7. Planning: I’ve used the new media in a wide variety of ways during the planning of
my music video, here are a few more examples.
Uploading my detailed planning and
storyboard
To check the weather for filming
To scan/upload the flat plans
for my DVD digipak
To get inspiration surrounding
costume, camera shots, effects.

8. Construction:
