Evaluation Question 4

In order to answer the third question for my evaluation - (How did you use new media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?) - I have created a commentary where I have spoken about the media technologies I used and add images to illustrate them.

Evaluation Question 3

In order to answer the third question for my evaluation - (What have you learned from your audience feedback?) - I created a wordle document to present my feedback and xtranormal videos to explain my feedback as I felt they added colour to my work and made it look more interesting and creative.

Below is the feedback for my video only

I sent an email with a link to my video to a selection of my peers asking for feedback. here are the screen shots of their opinions:

Below is a video I created using "xtranormal.com" showing a discussion between two characters explaining the effects of my audience feedback.




Below is feedback for my ancillary tasks only.
In order to gain feedback for my ancillary tasks, I sent an email (shown below) to some of my peers hoping to obtain some feedback on my work.

Below is another xtranormal video I created to explain my audience feedback.


As it can be difficult to hear what the character is saying above, I have pasted the script below:

"Hello. Today I'll be explaining  the feedback given for Emily's ancillary tasks. Firstly, she sent copies of her digipaak and magazine advert to her peers via an email.After recieving mulitple replies expressing different likes, dislikes, similarlities and differences between the two pieces she was given an idea of what she did well in her piece and where there was room for possible improvement.

Following this, the main simiarlity she found were certain themes such as the simplicity of the text, darkness of lighting and colour and the taxi image printed on both pieces. This continuity allowed the pieces to be linked together and become recognisable by their audience. Through creating a brand image the band can gain their own look and become individual thus presenting themselves in a new and authentic, vintage way.

Similarly to Emily's music video, the audience feedback also suggested the art within the two ancillary tasks was similar to other artists with the same genre of music already in the market and in the charts.

Overall, these pieces demonstrated simplicity, but mystery and darkness through it's use of bold text and imagery. Emily has said there are little improvements she could make to the magazine advert and possibly more detail could have been added to the digipak provided she was given more time."

Evaluation Question 2

In order to answer the second question for my evaluation - (How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?) - I created a powerpoint presentation as I felt it allowed my work to look more creative and interesting, also differing from my answer to question 1.

Evaluation Question 1

In order to answer the first question for my evaluation - (1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?) - I created a prezi as I felt it allowed my work to look more creative and interesting.
