Question 1a. Digital Technology

Intro: Digital technologies have had a massive influence on media production over the last few years and since I began I started in Year 12 I have learned  a massive amount about how to use them and what the benefits are of using them. They in turn have had a massive impact on the quality of my finished products.

Adobe Premiere Pro - At the beginning of the course I had very little experience in editing. Since then though I have transitioned from being quite a basic editor to a more complex and creative editor of effects, transitions and sound manipulation, I know have the knowledge to find  new ways to manipulate moving image and how to blend them together by using such tools as dissolve transition and basic cuts. I used an SD card to store my footage so that it could be uploaded and edited in a matter of minutes. - On Adobe Premiere Pro I used the timeline to get an accurate position for where I wanted to cut or split the series of images. Another technique I used to make the editing of my video simpler was to use the playback tool and pause button to create editing to the beat in my video.

Social Networking Sites - The only time I used social media for this course was when I needed to arrange filming or photography of my main artist or for group tasks. For example I used messenger via Facebook to contact people when I needed to notify them.

You Tube - I used You Tube as the platform to upload my video content which I would later embed to my blog and share to others.
