I have used many new media technologies when producing my media package, these vary from Microsoft word to PhotoShop. During these past two years I have learnt how to use many new technological programmes and have been able to take advantage of the recent advances in web 2.0.
My skills in PhotoShop have progressed radically during these two years, in my production i used many tools to ensure my magazine and poster were as realistic as possible, here are some examples of tools i used:
- Exposure
- Contrast
- DA font
- Crop
- Burn
- Layers
- Quick select
- Rubber
All these tools helped me in producing an effective media package. See my previous blog posts for evidence of me playing around with these tools.
Web 2.0 has been extremely helpful in both research, planning and evaluation stages. For example Blogger has allowed me to publice all my information and reserach in a clear and sophisticated way. I have learnt how to embed codes easily and prduce high quality, clear work.

SlideShare has allowed me to present intricate presentations in a easy way, Signing up to an account last year, it has benefitted the way i have presented my work. Microsoft Powerpoint is needed to put a preasentation on SlideShare, as a universal product i found it easy to use and was another way of presenting my work.

Youtube has been a fantastic resource i have used for research, it has enabled me to anlayse and understand trailer conventions. It helped me dramtically for the contruction of my trailer.
Twitter and Facebook, both extremely successful social
networking sites have enabled me to arrange my actors and promote my media
package. I have tweeted asking people to take a look at my trailer and comment
for reviews that could improve my trailer.
The video equipment I used was as follwed: Panasonic HD, this enabled me to have a high quality video shots, it always had lots of settings, such as; white balnace, red eye and brightness - these all helped me capture a good video.
Overall I have benefitted a lot by using all these technologies, they have contributed greatly to my final outcome.
