How i use digital media when creating my blog, evaluation and final production.

I have decided to link the prezi i did about the ways i use digital media in one day, to how i use digital media when creating my blog, evaluation and final production (completed film noir OTS). I think that a lot of the digital media i use in one day has something to do with me doing media for an A level. Ironically, i am just doing a post to show how i use it in a media project, not using very much digital media.  As i havent yet completed my whole final production and evaluated it, i have written digital medias which i know i will definately use, and the i can write some more in later if i missed any. Here is the list and explanation of digital media (technology) have used so far and in the future to create my blog, evaluation and final production:

  • Blog
- Internet
- Camera - To take pictures of costumes, locations, lighting, (etc) and sometimes printed work which needs to go onto my blog without using my scanner or just uploading it onto a post.
- Scanner - I have used one to scan from old 1950's magazines and books to help me with costumes and writing fonts. I also have used it to scan written and printed work which i need on my blog, but didnt want to just post it - i wanted to use a different kind of digital media.
- Ipod - I sometimes listen to it while im blogging and i have used it previously to take pictures and videos to then put them on my blog as it is compact and easy to carry around. It is also very quick and efficient.
- Video camera - I have used this to video a couple of storyboards, we used it to film our continuety task which is on the blog and also our concept board live presentation.

  • Final production 
- Film camera - Using this to film my OTS
- Digital camera - I will be taking photos before, during and after i am filming so i can record the lighting and postitions of people.
- Microphone - As i only have a small amount of dialogue which luckily is said when you cant see my male characters faces, i will have to use a microphone to record the telephone conversation.
- Mac - To get on the internet, iMovie etc.
- Final Cut - I wasnt planning to use this but as i might need to flip a couple of clips so my characters are walking the opposite way during the following scene.
iMovie - To edit my filming, apply transitions and effects, sounds etc.
- Radio - I am planning to use my 1960's radio which i will then play sound through to create an old-sounding sound.
- Photoshop - I used this to create different combinations of credit backgrounds.
- Ipod - It helped me when i couldnt use my ordinary digital camera to take pictures of different things. I also used my ipod to film a storyboard because it is quick, simple and easy to use - just the touch of one button!
  • Evaluation
- Internet -
