Types of Media - Shannon

Something our group has done really well is use different types of media.

Throughout the process of filming and editing we included updates by using various types of media. 

Some have proven to be more popular and efficient.

This is so that work remains interesting and the blog doesn't look like continual essays. 

Prezi:

I think 'Prezi' was a favorite.  We used it to create a good, organised presentation for our pitch and I used it for our pitch feedback. 

Prezi allows our work to be organised and presentable which is better.

This is because loads of words on a blank page with no images looks boring. 

Prezi also helps shrink down long text, making it easier for viewers to read.

SoundCloud & Creative Commons: 

We were introduced to Creative Commons which led us to Sound Cloud. This was a legal way for us find a soundtrack for our film opening sequence without using copyright. Kris & I used it to find the soundtrack appropriate for our film.

Slid.es: 

Slid.es was used when creating simple updates to our blog or assessing what was done during the lesson. 

It is a quick easy process, that is why our group used Kris & I used it when writing about our rough cut feedback, and also when writing about the process of filming the Breakfast Club. 

Gifs from movies we were inspired by or even fitted the task:

Gifs made our blog look better in the sense that it looked lifeless and dull without them. We figured out/learnt to make our own gifs and find ones through google images.
