Question 3: What have you learnt from your audience feedback?
Here is question 3 of my evaluation, i hope you enjoy it.
Question 4: How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?
For the construction of my short film i used lots of different media technologies. For example, when trying to find an idea for my film i was looking through a website called Youtube, which is a site where anyone can upload videos to, on this site there is millions of short films, and also feature films. So this is where i went for inspiration. After weeks and weeks of looking through short films on here i decided that i would create a futuristic short. After deciding this i then looked back at futurisitic shorts on youtube and tried to find what people liked within the films, so i could include them myself. Once id come up with my idea and plot for gas man, i then decided to share this idea on social media, so i could get some feedback as to whether this was something people would want to watch or whether i'd need to start brainstorming for a whole new idea. Feedback i got was quite good, however i got some suggestions of little bits i could change, which i ended up doing.
Another way in which media technologies helped with the construction of my film is by helping me recruit a filming team. I used the social media site 'Facebook' to message people and find contacts who might be interested in acting in my film, or being behind the scenes. From doing this it meant i could find people who were interested in drama, and also in film generally. I ended up recruiting my whole team via facebook. Facebook also helped with organising everything, i made a group chat with all the crew in it, so we could keep each other updated at all times, with times of filming, and when we were available etc. Being able to do this was a huge help and without this organising everything would have been extremely difficult.
A third way in which media technology was used was to create this blog itself. By using blogger it meant i could update everyone with how my film was going, and how i was going about doing so. Aswell as all the preparation i had put into it. I have uploaded everything i have done over the year to this blog, including my film, poster and magazine review. This lets the whole world have a chance of seeing it meaning i could get feedback from others and also look back to see this in the future so i could see what needs improving and what doesn't when i do this again.
Media technologies also helped massively with my evaluation. I wouldst have been able to do a single bit of my evaluation without some of the websites and software. For example, i have used Pezii to create a presentation for one of my evaluation questions, as i was hoping it would be something different to a normal blog, meaning people could enjoy it more. I also have made vlogs which i have uploaded to my blogs, in which i used editing software and cameras, which without, it obviously wouldn't have been possible. But of course the main thing i used in my evaluation was social media. I used this to gain all sorts of feedback about my film, mainly using survey monkey to create a survey and then posting this on facebook, along with a link to my film in order to get people to complete the survey. I found this extremely useful, it was so much quicker than asking for peoples feedback and opinions in person.
In conclusion media technologies helped me massively with the production of my film. It helped me develop my idea, create the film, advertise my film and also gain feedback about it. I would say that without the media technologies we have today i would have struggled massively to do all of this.
