Evaluation Question 3

Question 3 on the evaluation was: What have you learnt from your audience feedback?

After constructing the documentary,print advert and radio trailer, I created a questionnaire that I will hand out to 20 members to the target audience and this will help me to evaluate how well I have done during the practical tasks and will also help me to answer the evaluation question 3: What have you learned from your audience feedback.
The questionnaire will ask how professional, informative and entertaining the three tasks were.
There will be 3 questionnaires: one for the documentary, one for the radio trailer, one for the print advert. This is the audience feedback questionnaire for the documentary.
The questionnaires are shown below in a SlideShare:













 I also showed the members of the target audience by means of FaceTime and in person. They then filled in the questionnaire, I then analysed the results and  made this Glogster about what I have learnt from the audience feedback of the documentary:



I also made a Glogster about what I learnt from the audience feedback of the radio trailer:




To present the feedback I recieved for the print advert I created a SlideShare:






This is the video footage of audience feedback on the main task and the two ancillary tasks:

Evaluation Question 4

Question 4 on the evaluation was: How did you sue media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?
I divided my presentation into the 3 stages: research and planning, construction and evaluation stages, and i explained why I used the media technologies and also how I used them in the stages.
I decided to present this question in the form of a BrainShark which is embedded below:

Codes And Conventions Of Print Adverts

This is a Prezi that I made outlining the main codes and conventions of print adverts. I will use these codes and conventions when i am creating the print advert for our documentary.
I used this website to get examples of print adverts to give me ideas when designing our advert:http://www.4creative.co.uk/flash/#/keywords/print_ad/factual_cutting_edge_storm_junkies

Codes And Conventions Of Print Adverts on Prezi

Drafting Newspaper Advertisement

Today I drew out a draft for how the newspaper advertisement to promote our documentary should look like.
Whilst doing this I had to bear in mind the codes and conventions of the newspaper advertisements, also I had to use the codes and conventions of Channel 4 adverts, for example: having the logo of the channel indented.
Below is the draft of how the newspaper advertisement should look:

Editing The Print Advert

This is a Prezi presentation about the process of editing the print advert.

Codes And Conventions Of Radio Adverts

In todays lesson we listened to three radio adverts for documentaries/tv programmes which were: special needs pets, last chance to see and also bbc4 weather series. From listening to these we came up with what all three had in common and these formed the codes and conventions of radio adverts. When creating our radio adverts we are supposed to keep to these codes and conventions. The codes and conventions are shown below in a Glogster:

Scripting The Radio Trailer

This lesson we scripted the radio trailer The Brainshark below shows a copy of the radio trailer script and how it was scripted:

Editing Of The Documentary

When editing the documentary I took screengrabs of different things that I was doing during the process of editing. The process of editing and the explanations of the screengrabs are described on the SlideRocket underneath:

Edit Decision List

Planning: Test Shots For Lancashire Tea

Today we went and got test shots at Lancashire tea, for our interview. We did this to see whether we needed to take a light with us. These are some of our test shots presented in a SlideRocket:

Planning- Framing Interviews

During this course, we learnt how to frame the interviews, for example, by using the rule of thirds and where the eyeline should be directed to and where the camera and the interviewer and the interviewee should be positioned. Whilst planning our documentary I drew out storyboards of how the interviews should be framed and how the mise-en-scene will be relevant to the documentary. The interview storyboards are explained and presented in the form of a Glogster below:

Running Order

This lesson we created a running order for the 30 minute slot that our documentary should fill. The running order is a list of content upon which we wish to include in our documentary,as well as in what order and for how long each section should take in the documentary. Details of the running order and also a copy of it is shown on the BrainShark embedded below:

Secondary Research- Scheduling Interviews

During the process of making our documentary we have had to arrange interviews, before going to our interviews we had to think about the mise-en-scene and see if it was relevant. If the mise-en-scene wasnt relevant, then props had to be taken to the interview venue or use more cutaways to reinforce the brand of the persons occupation or to relate it to tea This is a Glogster showing our attempts at scheduling interviews and who we interviewed in the end:

Primary Research For Documentary

Before starting the filming of the documentary, research had to be collected which can help give us facts, numbers, dates that are important in the development of tea and this can help make the documentary both informative and enjoyable. The Brainshark underneath shows what research, and archive material was collected before the filming started:

Content For Documentary

In todays lesson we had to create a brainstorm containing information we wished to stick in our documentary. The information was found off numerous websites and sources, all of which are listed in "research for documentary post" From doing this we found out interesting facts such as: 90% of tea drank is black tea and the tea importation increased in 1750 when cane sugar became readily available. The rest of the brainstorm and information is presented in a Glogster presentation:

Formal Proposal For Documentary

During this lesson we had to come up with a formal proposal for the documentary: This is supposed to show the name of the documentary, the channel it will be aired, the target audience etc. I presented the formal proposal in the form of a SlideShare below:

Preliminary Task - Evaluation.

This is a Glogster that I made which highlights what was good with our preliminary task and what could be improved.

Preliminary Task- Production&Editing

This is the preliminary task video which we made, on the topic of mobile phones

We set up the camera on the tripod in our media room thinking that it would be a good mise en scene for the interview due to the fact that it is on technology.
I then filmed the interview and Lauren sat to the left of the camera and asked the questions. This was to make sure that the eyeline was not to the camera.
After we filmed the interview we then took the camera up to the common room and filmed Olivia and Kathryn using their mobiles, this was to then be used as a cutaway to slot between two questions
This SlideShare shows the editing process of the preliminary task:

This is the final video which we made:

Preliminary Task- Planning

In todays lesson we got given our preliminary task of creating a short documentary about mobile phones. We were to conduct an interview with a peer about mobile phones, we were to include appropriate cutaways and we also had to edited out the questions asked.
