How Did You Use New Media Technologies In The Construction And Research, Planning And Evaluation Stages?


Throughout our entire project many media technologies and applications were used. Both a still digital camera and a video camera were used to shoot the footage, which was later uploaded onto the computer using a FireWire. The film footage was then edited using iMovie where we were able to delete unwanted scenes, cut clips, and add titles, sound effects and a non-copyrighted soundtrack. The soundtrack we used was downloaded from the free website www.freeplaymusic.com along with the heartbeat and typewriter sound effects.

Our production titles were created using Adobe Photoshop, along with the magazine front cover and poster, and then imported onto iMovie. Once we had finished the editing process, our teaser was converted into a Quicktime file and uploaded onto our online blog.

Our still images, taken whilst filming our footage were also edited in Photoshop. They were resized and stylized in order for them to correspond with the teaser. The images were then used to create the film poster, film magazine and blogger template. The font and texts used on the poster and magazine were created using a free website www.dafont.com.

The teaser trailer along with the poster and magazine cover were then uploaded onto our blog where external links and video footage were also used. Our audience feedback video and our directors commentary, alongside the teaser can also be found on http://www.youtube.com/user/ObsessedMovie1as some computers are not compatible with the blogger video footage.

We also decided to use www.facebook.com and www.twitter.com to create an established audience and also to gain important feedback to improve our products. (The links to our facebook and twitter can be found on the Links. page on this blog.)
