Question 1- In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

Planning For Evaluation- Questions 1-4

Technology that I will be using for each question are as follows...


Question 1- In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

I will use Prezi for question 1 because it is easy to create animated presentations and because it is the longest question, it will be most convenient and i will be able to include a lot of images to support my information. I will also be able to tell a story through my Prezi and therefore make the information more appealing and interesting to read. As i have used Prezi many times, I am familiar with how to use the software and therefore i can work through the questions quickly with no problems on how to use the software.



Question 2-  How effective  is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?



I will use emaze for question 2 because i am also familiar with using this software which means that I will be able to complete my work without any problems not knowing how to use the website. Also, emaze is a similar but more simple software to Prezi, which means that i can use less animation and more simple effects to complete my answers. The question is shorter than the first one which means that I will not need to make my question as long and animated. 

Question 3- What have you learned from your audience feedback?



 I will use powtoon for my third question because as the question is about the audience's feedback, I can make an animated presentation based around a classroom environment as it gives you the option to do so in the website. Also, powtoon is very fast to make and you can make a professional looking video within only 20 minutes and because the deadlines for the questions are in 3 weeks, it is important that i can finish all the questions whilst including as much information as Ied to achieve a good grade.


Question 4- How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?


I am going to use Prezi for question 4 because i feel the most comfortable using this software as i have previously used it numerous times and it is very easy and simple to create different presentations through the different templates that it has. Also, as this question is about different technologies, I think that it is most beneficial to use for this type of software as i can refer to it easily. 

CD Completed- Advert, CD Cover, CD

Throughout the past week, i have been working within photoshop to make my CD advert, CD Cover and the actual CD. I was able to learn new skills throughout this process in order to try and make a professional looking CD. I wanted to keep the background theme of a wall so that all the work that I produced looks similar and follows the same house style. The use of the wall represents the idea of betrayal and the fact that he cannot trust anyone anymore.

CD Pack- Completed- 11/01/2017

In today's lesson i was able to complete my CD front, back Cover and spine. In my last lesson i set targets, to finish listing the tracks and to choose an appropriate font for the list of songs. I wanted the font to be appealing to my tagret audience which is why i went and found a font online. The list of songs is carefully alligned within the brick walls of the background so that it could have that blend in effect. I was able to complete these targets and i am now beginning to work on my Advert in photoshop,

CD Progress- 10/01/2017

In today's lesson, i began to work on the back cover of the CD and i chose an image to use. I lowered the capacity of the image i used in order to make it more appealing and make it look more professional to my target audience. I was trying to make the image blend in with the wall background which was inspired from one of my case studies called J Hus- 13th day. In the next lesson i am going to add in the list of songs to the back cover and then start to work on the advert.

CD Digipack Plan- 09/01/2017

In today's lesson, i changed the background of the CD front and back cover so that it looked more professional and relevant to out music video and genre of music. I think that it will be more appealing to my target audience due to the fact that it stands out more and will look more unique on a shop stand compared to other CDs.

I need to...

• Add in the pictures that i have chosen of the cover star.
• Add in list of songs
• Add in promotions
• Add in Parental Advisory Content

Case Study- Corrections 04/01/2017

In today's lesson i began to start adding in more information based on my teachers comments on my case studies in order to improve my overall grade. One of the main feedback i received was to add information on the inside of the cover within the CD digipak, however there was no inside cover on all three of the CDs i looked at and therefore i was unable to talk about the features.
