Final Blog: Closing Up
Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnaaaaaaaalllllllllllllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!
After all those media deadlines and stressing out- I'm proud to say that I'm finally done. While it has been very time consuming, tough and tiring- I can't deny that I have enjoyed being able to create Nabilla J and "Foundations" (even IF Final Cut Pro & Photoshop had to be dealt with also). On this note, I will like to OFFICIALLY say goodbye to Blogger and all the burdens along with it. Byeeeeeeee

Evaluation Q4
What have you learned from your audience feedback?
Above is a clip that I made which demonstrates the events after the cinema screening, and what our target audience felt when they saw "Foundations". Firstly, the reactions to our music video showed a good atmosphere, by capturing the audiences attention with our many editing techniques. The clip shows that stop motion animation and quick cuts is what made our music video better, where stop motion was used as our motif and quick cuts added to the movement of our music video. Within this blog post, you will find I have included a picture of our viewership and you will see that we have had 44 plays since "Foundations" was posted onto Vimeo. The clip above shows that in terms of improvement and changes, I could have used more camera angles and positions which I also agree with as it would have made our music video look more realistic and given it a better appeal. Overall, what I learned from the audience feedback was that movement is very important to include as it doesn't get boring and because our target audience are teenagers and young adults it's important that they're always drawn in. Also another thing I learnt, was that using a variety of camera angles is always essential as it introduces the audience to the background and scenery and allows them to know what is going on in the environment surrounding the artist.
Planning Evaluation Q4

Question 4 asks "What have you learned from your audience feedback?"
When answering this question I will focus on:
- Audience Reactions at the cinema
- Where they good?
- They didn't like it?
- How the target audience felt my music video could be improved?
- What my target audience liked about my music video
- Changes I would make if I had another chance
- What I learnt from what my target audience had to say
What media technology will you use for this question?
When creating question 4, I will use the clips recorded to show what the target audience had to say. I will also link to Vimeo to show audience ratings and viewership.

Planning Evaluation Q1
Planning Evaluation Q1
"In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?"
How will you approach this question- what will you say?
- Use of colour
- Four way split screen
- The use of hand- held camera
- Fairy Cakes: These are seen to be on trend right now
- Swearing + Graffiti - challenging genre conventions
- Animations- e.g. Flip Book
- Fast Pace
- Nabilla J can be compared to Lilly Allen in terms of defying female stereotypes
All the above bullet points helps us to understand that "Foundations" displays a fun atmosphere! When creating my real evaluation Q1- I hope to use Slideshare as a different method of presentation and use of ICT.

Ancillary Work: Receiving Feedback
After the completion of my ancillary work, I decided to show it to my family members and friends and below is a list of what they liked:
- Facial expressions- viewers said that Nabilla J's facial expressions were warm and welcoming, almost as if audiences knew her personally
- Colour scheme- They liked how I stayed true to my colour scheme throughout my digipak and magazine advert and felt that it all fit together really well
- Message- After seeing the message, everyone commented on how original it was- they said that if Nabilla J was a real artist then messages like that would really inspire people
- Genre- They also said that the digipak and magazine advert make it easy to identify the genre that the artist lives up to- which in our case is Indie Pop. Viewers said they liked how we used an older car for the cover rather than a newer and modern car to show the vintage side to it all

Ancillary Work: Colour Change
Having chosen a colour scheme with my group and also choosing individual colour's from colour selector on Photoshop from our pictures- I have decided to go along with using another colour for my magazine advert. The reason why I used this green for "The Debut Album" on the ad was because, I felt that everything was very matching and made my ad look boring- so in adding another colour it made my advert look a bit more original and definitely stands out more.

Progress Review Blog
Progress Review
Reflect back on your blog entries for the ancillary research and planning: how satisfied are you with the quality of your blogging work?
As the blogging process has developed, I have continued to do extra blogging tasks as well as following the blogging guidelines given to us by our media teacher. Some of the extra blogging tasks that I did independently has helped me when creating my ancillary products on Photoshop and documents the development of my ancillary work from start to finish. Overall, I am proud of my blogging and hope to continue at the pace that I am currently working at.
How many different pieces of ICT have you used, and how successfully do you feel this integration of ICT is?
From the start of the blogging process to now, I have used a range of different ICT technologies on my blog as a way to present my work. Examples include; Scribd, Prezi and Vlogs etc. The integration of ICT on my blog can be seen in the way that I have used some type of media technology in all of my blogging.
Set yourself three final targets for your blog

Production Ancillary work: Using Photoshop for Digipak
The software I am currently using to create my digipak is Photoshop. Having taken photography during my AS year, the use of Photoshop isn't a new experience for me- so I had enough knowledge on how to use the software to create my digipak. However, the Photoshop we used was a newer version so it was quite different. Above is a slideshow of my digipak being edited in Photoshop. In creating my digipak, I used tools like the magic wand, free transform and different types of shapes. I stuck to our groups black and white colour scheme and also used a blue from the car on the front cover as another chosen colour to use. Overall, my Photoshop skills have developed even further from creating my digipak- which will help me to also create my magazine advert.
Below you will find my final version for my digipak, which I will use to show my media teacher for any feedback if any changes should be made.
