FINAL CUT Here is the Final Cut of our music video for the Strokes - 'I'll try anything Once':  HERE .

Feedback on final cut; To gain and gather feedback of our final music video, we asked people to watch our video and look at our ancillary tasks and tell us what they thought was positive about it and where we could improve for future references.  we created a video response; Here are also some screenshots of messages people sent me as a response as well: DG

How  did you use media technologies to in the construction of research, planning and evaluation stages? During A2 (year 13) and throughout the process of completing our music video, me Lily and Daisy used media technologies to help us with the construction of our music video and the research which helped us plan throughout the process. This year, we learnt how to use a wider range of media technologies.  All of the products above, mainly Photoshop and Adobe premier pro were the most useful, but also a challenge to use. We were having to learn how to use them through our own knowledge (which in some areas was proven difficult) because if you didn't know how to use a certain tool or editing technique, you would have to research how to do it yourself. This is where the internet (media technology) came in useful. The internet was a quick and easy way to gather the research we needed to help plan and produce our final product. For example  searching how to do certain editin

What have you learned from your audience feedback? Here is my plan for answering Evaluation Question 3  Below are the screenshots of messages I also collected as feedback.  I also created a questionnaire with multiple different questions; below is the template  I then got one woman ages 51+ and two boys aged 17 to answer it. Here was there responses;  woman (purple pen) boys (black pen) Here is my video response  What have I learnt from my audience feedback? To gain feedback I wanted to specifically talk to people who were part of my target audience, which was younger people, but I also spoke to few people from an older generation to make sure it was inclusive. I did this by showing people my music video on youtube and then printing out my digi-pak and poster and presented them in the interview. I then was  asking them directly to form a discussion or interview; but I also used social media.

EVALUATION QUESTION 2:   HOW EFFECTIVE IS THE COMBINATION OF YOUR MAIN PRODUCT AND ANCILLARY TASKS? For evaluation question 2, I have produced a video illustrating how we have created synergy across our three products in the design, layout, construction of representations, mise-en-scene, and colour scheme, amongst other things. I wanted to create a chatty video of me describing our ancillary tasks, because I think it best demonstrates our products if its tangible to me and I can go through each of our decisions. I feel as though I went in to a good depth of detail and explained what went wrong, why we liked it, why we used the images we did and whether the two went well together. So, here's the video: PLANNING : In preparation to evaluate our ancillary tasks, I printed out the original digipack and poster so I could show them in the video, holding them allowing it to be clear if I wanted to focus on something specifically. I feel as though having the actual ancill
