Evaluation: Question 4 // How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

In addition to the information already provided, it's important for me to mention that since AS Media I have used YouTube more thoroughly to my advantage, implementing it to source short films for me to analyse the codes and conventions of, informing my final product later on in the course. I moved from using Final Cut Pro to edit my film in year 12, to moving on to using Adobe Premier Pro, one of the latest editing software available to me. This programme allowed me to further my skills by providing more editing elements such as different forms of filters (noise, lighting, tint, colour corrector etc.) for me to work with. Where in AS media, my group and I used a few filters, de-satirising the image, in A2 I could use Premier Pro to add more, advanced filters. This is also a similar case for sound editing software already built into Premier Pro at an advanced level, far greater than Final Cut. I was required to film more in the evaluation stages of the project which has allowed me to explore a full range of editing techniques. In the evaluation videos, I have shots running alongside the original footage of me talking, which is an editing technique I have since developed from AS media.
