4.How did you use media terminologies in the construction and research. planning and evaluation stages.

While is was creating my Music I use a variety of different types of technology and ideas that I got from my research and planning that I did before my group started creating the actual music video which was based around our chosen genre Indie Rock.

         

 

 

The technologies that I have used to create my music video was a tripod and camera this enabled my group to capture every shot of our music video and the tripod allowed us to create s still shot without the camera being shaky, this enabled all our shots to be perfectly still and look more professional to people watching the music video.  The other technology that we used to create the music video is a fig rig, the fig rig is a piece of the technology that allows you to creature hands held that allows you to capture movement because it allows you to move while holding it, this helped us to film the running scene where the lead singer lip syncs at the same time as running from one place to another.

 

The research and planning posts allowed the group to get a basic idea about what our music video is going to be based on this enabled us to plan what we were going to film and where we were going to film. we used a variety of different equipment during out planning and research posts to enable us to understand what kind of techniques that we have used for example we created a green screen video to we walk 500 miles to enable us to get an understanding on how we can use the green screen in our own music video

 

 

during the planning posts we were able to understand how to use Photoshop, this enabled us to understand the ways in which we could use Photoshop to help us to create our ancillary tasks, we used photo shop the piece together images from different places and from different places and we took our own images to make sure that we create it ourselves, we used the different layers in Photoshop to enable us to be able to create our CD cover and our Advert.

In the lesson we had a tutorial on how to take an image from a camera upload the images onto photoshop, then delete the background and add a different background. the cd cover above shows what we got taught in lesson. we took an image or me and jamie and then afterwards, we uploaded the images from the camrea to iphoto on the mac computers, we went onto photoshop and went file new and changed the size of the canvas to make it suitable and the right length and width for a cd cover. we then took the images from iphoto and draged them into our photoshop camvas. we then used the magic wand tool to delete the background off the imaged so all that was left mine and jamies photos. we then took an image from google that fitted with out theme of indie rock really well and placed the in photoshop in a layer that is different because the layer would be behind the previous image, like shown above of me and jamie sitting on the bench we just took an  image from google and moved it around show it would look like out type of theme, for the back of the cover we picked to use the photo of me looking down so it would look like that I am looking down and we used it so it looks like that I am looking at the song titles.
