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.

4. Evaluation Question: How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?
MUSIC VIDEO
Through audience feedback i have learnt that they enjoyed the narrative of the video and most of the edits, we have use feedback from the ruff cut and improved it. things the audience said didn't work. I felt like it was important to change these things as the audience are the once that our productions are bases around. audience had said that the video needed colour as it was plain so we incorporated a black and white effect on the past tense clips which once the same audience watched again said it had created of and understanding.
Through reactions in the cinema i know that the video had a sentimental feel to it and was quite gripping to some. " the editing of the girl fading was effective as it was such a shock and was sad" said a member of the audience. however we did get some critism regarding the dress code of the characters. The audience didnt feel as though the costumes of the characters were suitable for the genre. Although we did research and thought we were meeting the codes and conventions the audience found that the costume was very appealing and did not let the artist stand out from the rest. From this i learned that even if you do online research on different artist you should also ask audience members what they feel are the codes and conventions of indie pop.
I have also learned that even if your video is appealing to the audience it is not also what they expect of you that matters. I have learnt that it is important to create exciting and captivating productions as the audience for my production are young and need a lot more engagement. This will encourage my audience to want to see future productions.
