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


Hardware/Software
What is it?
Purpose
Hardware
Apple Mac
We used this to create our music videos as well as for research.
Hardware
DSLR Camera
We used this for taking high quality photographs that we used for our Ancillary Products.
Hardware
USB
This is important as we used this to back up our work as well as used this to transfer files.
Hardware
Tri-Pod
We used to help make our photographs/films still.
Hardware
HD Camcorder
We used this to shoot High Definition shots which made our music video a high, and better quality.
Software
Photoshop
We used this for our Ancillary Products. As we have experience in using this program; it gave us a good advantage and made our ancillary product look professional.
Software
iMovie HD
This is the program we used for our Animatic.
Software
Microsoft Word
We used this for Documentations such as creating the questionnaires. 
Software
Microsoft Powerpoint
We used this for our group pitch on our chosen song.
Software
Blogger
This is where we recorded our progress as well as for our evaluation tasks.
Software
YouTube
We used YouTube to view existing music videos that helped us gave ideas on our music videos.
Software
Slideshare
We used this to add to our Blog. This was an easy way to upload documents into Blogger.
Software
Final Cut Express HD
We edited our music video here. We were inexperienced at first but we managed to learn new skills by working together to create our music video.
Software
Go Animate!
This is where we created our Evaluation Activity Task 2. This gave us unique and fun way to view on how effective the combination of our main product and ancillary product.
Software
www.dafont.com
This website gave us numerous ideas on fonts that we used for our ancillary products. We downloaded the font and used them as the fonts in the computer are limited and not much variety.
Software
Facebook
We used this to communicate, as well as uploading our music video and gaining views and feedback from people who lives far away.
Software
Timeglider
We created timeline of history of music videos. This is much easier to view and upload to Blogger than creating on Microsoft Word.
Software
Prezi
I used this to create my research into Unsigned artist, as well as using it to create our Evaluation Activity 3. This is effective as it is fun, and easier to view than seeing countless text on Blogger.
Software
Survey Monkey
We used this to create surveys that helped us understand our target audience better. We added question relating to our Genre.
