Evaluation #6 (Question 2)

 

 

Evaluation #5

I have finally completed writing answers to the 4 evaluation questions and will now start making the presentations for each part.
I have been looking a lot at some of the free online presentation tools that are available and I think I came up with a shortlist of the ones I like the most:

• http://prezi.com/
• http://www.slide-effect.com/?gclid=CIeyxdXv8rUCFfLLtAoduzUAqQ
• http://www.empressr.com/View.aspx?token=VnLTWxyIZkc%3d
• http://www.9slides.com/?gclid=COq-1Inq8rUCFUfMtAod5gMAug
• http://goanimate.com/
• http://www.flickr.com/
• http://photopeach.com/ 
• http://www.zoho.com/
• http://popplet.com/

Because there is a lot of content in each of the evaluation answers I might decide to use a different tool for each of the parts to make it feel even more engaging!!!

Evaluation #4

Today I have been continuing work on the evaluation and have finished question 2 and 4 and now I'm on track of being able to meet the deadline for the coursework which is set on the Friday of next week. I'm hoping to finish writing the script by this Friday and spend next week making the presentations of the four questions with some free online software.

Evaluation #3

Today I have shown a draft of my evaluation to the teacher to getv feedback and find out what needs to be added to each question.
I have made notes on what needs to be changed and will use them to improve my evaluation.

Evaluation #2

Today I have continued working on writing-up the evaluation and have almost finished question 4. Number 1 is taking the most tyime because is the most complex and has many elements that have to be addressed in order.

Audience Feedback (Survey-Monkey)

Evaluation #1

Today in class we started thinking about the evaluation and decided on te format we are going to present it. We have agreed that it will be most sensible for us to each make an individual evaluation using creative media software instead of recording a Directors' Comentary.
There are a number of reasons that have influenced our choice:

• We have a very different timetables and it would be difficult to find times we could write the script together
• If were to do the Directors' comentary, we would have to illustrate the voice over with moving images, stills and screen shots of different stages of production
• The voice over would have to be recorded all at once
• The final product would not feel interactive for the viewer.

I think we have made the right choice, becausethe software needed for the creative evaluation is mostly available online and can be accessed from any computer whereas, the video would have to be edited together with Final Cut Pro which is only available in the editing suit of Media Department.

Also, in my opinion the variaty of software that could be used such as Prezi, Xtra normal and vlogs will make the final presentation much more interactive and appealing.

We now have just over a week to answer the evaluation questions in essay format before starting to make the creative parts.

Survey For Audience Feedback

 

Click here to take survey

 

This is the survey we have made to gather final piece of audience feedback for the whole production package. We will use the results of this survey for our evaluation.

Constructing The CD Digipack #8

This is our front cover, we have decided to use a symbol that reates to our video the most rather than use a face of the artist, this is because, this is what the band usuay does and we wanted to make it look and fee as conventional as possible.

Constructing The CD Digipack #7

 

This is a disc design for our CD package. We have used the same colours on it as in the rest of the production.

Constructing The CD Digipack #6

 

This is the final magazine advert.

 

Since the last construction process shot In have decided that I did not like the fact that the effects that were apllied to the main photograph translated onto the pictures of print products and so I have decided to address the issue by remoring the layers that had those images and saving the advert only with the text and the image as a separate JPG and then openning it in a new document on PhotoShop and adding the images back in their places.
I have achieved my objective which was to get the images stay in their original state ad do not have any extra effects on them. 

Constructing The CD Digipack #5

This is an inside insert I made for the CD pack. I have chosen the close-up shot image because I felt that it adds a personal feel, and I made it black&white so that it follows with the house-style of the overall print package.
I have chosen to include the lyrics of the song on here because I think it adds a point of interest to the CD pack and it also serves as an extra feature that would generate interest in the album.
