Evaluation- Question 1


Evaluation Questions

Now that I have finished my music video and my ancillary, I now need to do my evaluation by answering these evaluation questions:

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

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

3. What have you learned from your audience feedback?

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



I have to also consider the creativity when answering these questions as it has to be 'media rich'- meaning lots of pictures. I have thought of using Final Cut Express, Prezi and Stupeflix where I can create different videos and presentations where I can include lots of pictures.

I have now started my evaluation questions starting with the 1st question, a video made in Final Cut Express. I then plan to answer the 2nd and 3rd question using Prezi powerpoints, another creative way of presenting my answers. For the last question, I am going to use Stupeflix video as I have seen it being used and found it a really exciting video to create. When I have finished answering all my questions, I am then going to upload all the presentations and videos I created onto my blog.

Burning my music video and ancillary tasks on DVD using iDVD

Today, I burnt my music video and ancillary tasks on DVD using the iDVD. I first had to export my music video using Quicktime so that I can burn it on DVD. I then opened iDVD and chose a more creative theme so that when you play it, it would look more presentable and professional. I then dragged my music video in and renamed it 'Play Music Video' so it was more realistic like real DVDs. I then added a slideshow to show each of my ancillary tasks. When I was happy with it, I put my DVD in and burnt it. I now need to print my Digipak so that it can go in the case and also to print details on the DVD to make it look realistic and profesionnal

Finishing my music video- adding music channel logo and name of artist and song

Now that I have finished editing my music video, all that I have left to do was to add the logo of my chosen music channel and also add my artist's name and the song name on the bottom of the left corner.

As my music channel is 4music, I added their logoat the top right corner where it is usually seen on TV. I have watched their music channel so I know where the logo goes.

I then added my artist's name and song name at the bottom left corner as this is where it appears on TV. I made the text as a typewriter, to make it more interesting and more creative looking.

I have now officially finished my music video, I now need to burn the music video and my ancillary tasks on DVD.
