Evangeline

Blog Reflection

Technology - have you learned new online programmes for sbowing off work? Have you tried new premiere effects?

After adding more and more blogs I have tried to vary the programmes I have used  in order to become more familiar with a variety of programmes, so in future tasks I have more options to use when deciding what programme would be best for the specific task. I have used programmes like SlideShare when researching for my film opening when blogging about things like. I also used as a programme called Prezi in order to create a powerpoints for my research towards Evangeline. I liked Prezi as it was different compared to Microsoft Powerpoint in the way you can present your powerpoint. Throughout our filming tasks I would say I have spent most of the time on Adobe Premiere editing our footage and using different effects to make it feel how we wanted it to. I have become more and more confident in using premiere after using it for several tasks now.


Mark out of 20 so far?

I think I would rate my blog at around 13 or 14 out of 20. In order to improve my blog I should add a variety of photos to make my blogs more visual and maybe more understandable.

Where could you be a little more thorough or little less complacent?

If I'm being being critical I do think there is room for improvement throughout my blogs. I think I could add more information on my representations blog because after looking at it I realised that it is lacking information. I don't think I've been complacent during the time that I have been blogging as I have tried to fit as much as I can into each post without cramming it.

Is it fun to look through?

I think that my blog includes lots of useful information however I think to improve the look of my blog and make it more visual and fun I could add things like photos. I could also alter the texts by either changing the colour of the font I have used to make it a bit more interesting and aesthetically pleasing. Furthermore, I could change the design or background to make it stand out that bit more.

Is the learning journey evident?

From the start of my blogs to then end I think that there is a distinct improvement in the fact that I have started to include pictures, headings, labels etc. The more recent posts include more detail and show more of an understanding about media. 

Three targets to improve blog - research or planning (have you thoroughly covered all key media concepts - forms and conventions, audience, institution, representation.
