Q2) How effective is your main combination of your main product and ancillary texts? ,[object Object],Both of these were used in the magazine and documentary

[object Object],Facts were used in all three of our media products to help emphasize our topic, we constantly asked questions to make the audience question themselves before hearing it in the documentary, radio trailer or before reading the article. Consistency in font

[object Object],Here we slowed down some footage we had collected so that we had enough time to say our voice over. Our radio trailer did this to an extent as we could pick out our best quotes and put them, which helped to capture peoples attention. We tried to make it as interesting as possible but as it was short we could not use everything we wanted.

[object Object],Promoting when the documentary is being shown Overall I think that our ancillary tasks combine with our documentary well. They look and sound as if they belong together. They are very clear and effective when promoting the documentary. The radio trailer is enthusiastic and loud making it interesting similarly to the documentary. The article has a good layout making it clear and sectioned.

[object Object],Female professional interviews

Q3) What have you learnt from your audience feedback? ,[object Object], Yes No Documentary 24 0 Magazine 9 1 Radio Trailer 10 0

[object Object],As you can see from the results the majority of people said that our products were suitable for our target audience. We found this encouraging to us as we appreciate that not everyone would be interested in appearance. However it showed it that we reached and achieved what we wanted making this successful for us. We were given improvements for all our products for example many people suggested that we could have more voice over for our documentary and improve some of our sound levels. We agreed with some of the responses as we no that some parts of the interviews were quieter than others. Yes No Documentary 24 0 Magazine 9 1 Radio Trailer 10 0

[object Object],Finally an improvement that was made about the radio trailer was similar to the documentary to include more of a voice over rather than having lots of quotes. Some people thought that this gave away too much information on the documentary. Questions and answers Layout of images: images put onto different angles to make them look more appealing and interesting.

The overall feedback we got about our documentary was that we had good background footage, good interviews and a good set up of mise-en-scene. If we were to repeat this work again I would follow the advice from some of the feedback we got to improve upon our work.

From the audience feedback we received the information given back to us was what we expected. For example for our documentary questionnaire most people rated our sound quality as being excellent or good and we expected them to say good, therefore this was an achievement. For our magazine questionnaire we were hoping people would say that our magazine linked in well with the other two media products, and all 10 agreed that it did. Finally with our radio trailer we hoped that after the audience had listened to our radio trailer they would want to listen to the complete documentary 8 said yes and 2 said no. We had predicted this as our documentary was aimed at women and we knew that there would be men watching it who probably would not be as interested.

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Some weakness that we noticed were the interviews with the make up consultant from Yves Saint Laurent,fitness first and also some of our vox pops. As the microphone was not down low enough meaning you could see it moving around whilst we were interviewing, this made it look unprofessional so to overcome this problem we added a black header and footer to the professional interviews to hide this problem but also by doing this it make it look consistent throughout. We also had to redo some of our vox pops as the sound quality on a couple was not good enough. Appropriate lighting used looks like they are in there natural environment Here you can see this is what the interview looked like before we added the black headed and footer.

Q4) How did you use media technologies in the construction and research , planning and evaluation stages? ,[object Object],Last year we just used normal PC’s whereas this year we progressed onto using the MAC’s some differences between these two computers were that the MAC’s tended to focus more on the creative approach. It also uses different software and has a different operating system. MAC’s are more specialist so as a result it works more professionally.

[object Object],To import images or video files we had filmed we simply went to file log and transfer and picked what we wanted to be put into final cut express.

[object Object],As the camera was so small and compact it made it light and easy to transport when moving to different places to get interviews and background footage. We placed the cameras onto a tripod so that the filming would be in focus. Once we had set the levels so that the camera would be in focus we then had to make sure the sound levels were correct to do this we inserted the headphones into the camera and did a tester with the triga microphone. This was important we got the levels correct as otherwise our interviews could go wrong. A problem that sometimes occurred when using the triga microphones was you could hear background noise and it was sometimes difficult to set the sound balance correctly. We had this problem with the Yves Saint Laurent interview, as someone left the room whilst we were completing the interview.

[object Object],We also used the camera to do a zoom this was when we had interviewed the makeup consultant from Yves Saint Laurent. We zoomed into an advertisement stand which we then used as background footage to put some of our own statistics onto. However we did not use too many transitions as when we watched professional ones we noticed that they were kept limited, we followed this to make ours look as professional as possible. Pan of college

[object Object],We thought using a tilt worked effectively as it showed the wide variety of makeup that was sold on that counter. This showed just how many different products were out there for the public, which helped to emphasise just how much pressure is put onto appearance.

[object Object],However a disadvantage was it could sometimes be more time consuming as when you scanned things in you had to change the format to a JPEG. We also used the internet for research which meant it was easy access but not always reliable and valid information. The quality of what you found was not always the best.

[object Object],Allowed to preview before being added to the timeline. This is where the sound levels were monitored, if it touched red we knew the sound levels were too high. This was where out background music was added in. The image shown here is what would be shown on our documentary. This is the browser where everything was held, this is where you chose what went into the time timeline.

[object Object],This is the swatches tab used to colour items Once you had got your colour swatches it made it easier to be consistent with colours This is the toolbar which shows all the different things you can do in InDesign

[object Object],I found some advantages of using slideshare was that I could embed the slideshow into our blog, also you can share it publicly or privately. The original file could be downloaded. When uploading it I found it easy to use as I thought it worked well.
