With some digital technology becoming older it has caused the value to decrease which has made it easily affordable and accessible for us.
Last year in year 12 we had old basic cameras that had a low resolution which caused the picture to be of a lower quality and we had to film our children's film, thriller project with these cameras which made them look worse because of the low quality.
This has allowed new digital technology to be used like high definition cameras which we have used in year 13. This has improved the results in our projects because they are obviously better quality which has made our music video look better.
In year 12 we were first introduced to new software like final cut express and we were not trained to use this software very well so we only used basic performances on it as we were confused about how to make the full use of it.
Now in year 13 we have had a lot of experience with the software and we have been taught how to use its best features so we can now make very good videos because we can edit very good due to being taught how to add effects, edit more fluently, use more professional cutting by using fade in's and out's.
Another software on the computers we were first introduced to was Photoshop. At a first look of this software it looks very detailed, hard to use and confusing and in the first year we did not get taught about it.
In the second year we had to make ancillary tasks for our music video and in this we had to use photoshop to make a dvd cover and magazine article which when using photoshop helped us learn a lot more about the software itself and allowed us to make detailed ancillary tasks that were very effective in attracting the audience.
In the first year we learnt how to use I Stop Motion which is an animation program where you can take still shots and make them look like a video in order to make motionless things gain motion. In the first year we learnt how to do this very well.
We also learnt more about youtube and this allowed us to watch videos and use them as templates for our childrens film, thriller project and music video because the website allowed us to watch similar examples of what we wanted to make which helped us when making these videos.
The last thing that was new to us was online blogging and this enabled us to store information online and this was easy to learn as we went on a website called blogger.com, which is free to sign up and in year 13 it has been vital in making notes for our exam which shows how blogger has been important in a new digital technology we have started to use.
