This is a similar camera to the one me and my group used in order to

film the footage for our music video and be able to upload them

to Adobe Premier with a simple USB cable and be able to look at

them in great quality.

A similar camera to this one, was used in order for me and my group to create our ancillary tasks. With the help of this

camera we were able to take HD quality pictures; we have learnt how to zoom in on photos, how to make sure

the camera is focused on what we wanted it to focus on and when to use

the flash in case it was needed.

We were able to test our photos with the different effects Photoshop provided us with, such as learn how to edit the photos, import/export them, making the photos black and white, increasing/decreasing the brightness, duplicating layers and be able to crop the photos. With the help of this program we were able to create six polished pieces of work, with brilliant quality and be able to achieve professional outlooks on our covers.

We have used Adobe Photoshop in order to create our ancillary tasks. Since only one of the members from our group had previous knowledge in using

this program, me and other group member Gabby, had a great time into learning how to use this program to create the front, middle double page spread and back cover and poster for our

ancillary tasks.

Since at AS Level we have worked on iMovie in order to edit our opening film, we learnt that this program provided different things for us to experience, such as we were able to use non linear editing, something iMovie wasn’t able to provide at AS Level. This program taught us how to add effects to our music video, such as speed up or slow down our clips, fade certain clips if it was needed and most of all create a polished music video with different effects.

We used Adobe Premier in order to edit our music video. We were able to sync our clips up to this program in order to start editing and view our clips, and be able

to add our backing track to our project. None of us have ever encountered with this program before,

therefore it was a new challenge for us to experience and we have learned a lot from it.

With the help of PowerPoint my group and I were able to create presentations in order to present our planning, construction, evaluation and the research we have gathered. The biggest help from PowerPoint was that I was able to present a clear and organized presentation when it came to create my evaluation.

Microsoft Excel has been a big help when I wanted to create graphs in order to show a clear understanding of the audience feedback I have gathered.

With the help of this I was able to adjust the withds, and heights and therefore I was able to add the logo I created, as a background to my profile. Blogger allowed me to embed my slideshare PowerPoint into a blog post, therefore I didn’t have to create massive posts in order to show what I want to write. This website has allowed me to update everything what me and my group are doing, and to be able to put all my research, planning, constructions and evaluations into one place.

One of the biggest advantages my group and I have received, was that we were able to make a lot of research

from the internet and be able to clearly present everything we have gathered on Blogger. This would be the second time, when me and my group were able to use blogger to add all our research on it, and understand the website much better

than we did at AS Level. This year I have learnt how to design my blog the way I like it, instead of using a simple

background the website offered me.
