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

Individual Evaluation, Sara Karimi

One of the most important technologies that I used was the internet and due to Web 2.0 I discovered that I could get access to basically anything. I’ve researched and explored ideas through the internet, I’ve also gathered information and read upon other peoples recreations.

One of the most important things about the internet that helped me was Facebook and other websites that allow people to connect, because this way I could gather audience feedback which helped me with my knowledge of understanding my audience and what they expect.

Other websites that helped me was websites that I can create slideshows and create a more interactive work rather than pure written work. This allowed me to present my work in a more interesting way.

The use of camcorders and lighting also helped me create my product as I was able to use any location and I could also use a hand held camera which meant I could crate a more effective video. The lighting was also very helpful as it lit up the outside location and allowed me to practically create anything as I had all the technology to accompany me.

The use of the editing equipment and special effects were one of the most important technologies as well as Photoshop because taking photographs or videos is one thing but editing them to create emotion and meaning is more important therefore these technologies helped me create my product
