Final Blogging Task

After a long road of hard work of researching, planning and production I can honestly say I am very happy with all my work this year as I've dedicated a lot of time in making sure the majority of blogs have been completed.
I am very happy with the outcome of the music video and my ancillary products and the journey has been exciting.

Final progress review blog

My A2 blog is good in comparison to my AS blog. This year i added more deatail and blogged more consistantly.
This year i used different types of techonologies and websites. I used different websites such as prezi, sideshare, emaze etc... From there i then embeded the code and put them into my blog. Therefore my use of ICT has broadened this year

My blog is  effective when talking about the research planning and production. It's in alot of deatail from when we was choosing our songs until the final complettion of the music video. All our blogs are clearly labelled. The planning stages is where we done the most blogs. As this stage took a lot of organisation commitment and cuminication.

Personally in my work there gaps. When we finished filming and we had started the editing stages i fell behined in the blogging. This was becasue i was focusing on editing and for a week i forgot to blog. Therefore there was a gap in my work. However this was just me other members in group managed to complete it.
Indivual blogs i produced all together was 74.

If i was given another oppurtunity to complete this i rekon i would have over 100 blogs. I would have blogged in deatail all the editing I did in the first week as theres no evidence. I put the clips in order out transitions in, put markers in to edit to the beat and made sure the lip sync was correct. However i wasn't able to produce blogs about this

Evaluation: Final Progress review

In comparison to my AS with my A2 media work I can clearly see and acknowledge all of my improvements and I feel content with how far I've come.
In AS my use of ICT was far more restricted as I repeatedly used the same media resources, consequently I would end up using a small, limited variety of pictures and words. However, I could of used a broad range of texts and different methods to present my ideas, through websites such as Wix. Where as this year I've developed my skills in all areas by varying the use of different media technologies.When presenting my ideas I have managed to  vary the use of different media sources, for instance this time I've used sources such as ThingLink, PowToon, Slideshare and I have achieved in making my work more interactive rather than it being dull and full of words. Also this year I have made my work far more detailed and concise. During AS I didn't manage to attain the opportunity to use ICT to my full advantage as I didn't have access to internet at home therefore, I could only blog within school hours. Where as this year I have used my time wisely to complete all of my blog during as well as after school.

In terms of my 97 blogs they all have detailed explanations regarding the whole process from the beginning to the end. From the stages of choosing which song to use and to the stage of actually going out and filming and then editing the footage. 

I think that the gaps in my blogging occurred whilst I was on my Christmas holidays,as I had forgotten to blog about my personal research, therefore I had a lot of work to make up for. But I made up for the time lost by spending extra hours after school, this way I gradually went back into the rhythm of blogging constantly. 

If I could re-do or change in terms of my blogging I think I'd personally look for more media technologies,to present my work.The number of blogs would have increased if I had completed all of the blogging checklist.
