Below is my answer to Question 3. For this question I used twitter to answer it, so that I am answering my questions on a wide range of platforms.



Evaluation Question 3 from jameswarwickabi

Since I used twitter as a platform this was the extend of characters I could fit in the box yet I have a little more to say. I would like to use Bauer Media to distribute my magazine as they are a multi-touch platform, and since I have put facebook, twitter, and spotify convergents on the front, my audience would want to become 'prosumers', a term coined by Alvin Toffler. Bauer Media can aid in this multi-touch platform and help my audience become prosumers. Also, Bauer has a huge portfolio of magazines already, so they are very experienced in the field and understand my market greatly, this will be good for my magazine as they know how to distribute it well and be able to sell it well and gain a loyal audience for my magazine. Finally, Bauer is a world renowned company who are known for releasing quality products, so they have audience loyalty, meaning if they were to release my magazine, those interested in rock would buy it knowing that they are getting something remotely good.

Below is my answer to the Question 4 & 5. On this question I used Google slides instead of power point to show a wide range of platforms. To show I can use a wide variety of platforms, instead of uploading this with slide share, I uploaded it straight from Google slides uses the embedded, showing I can upload this from multiple platforms.

Below is my answer to the Question 6 & 7. For these final questions, I made a video for it. I used pictures from Google to aid in my editing. I edited this video in Windows Movie Maker, and exported it using this. I recorded my voice with audacity first, after writing a script in word pad, then uploaded it. I then added pictures to suit what I was saying in later production in movie maker. While recording my voice with audacity, I used a Turtle Beach X12 Earforce as this is the product that is my go to because I know what I am getting into with it, it was durable and lasted me for ages before buying a new one, and the mic quality (for the price of £30) is great. You get your most for your money with this and this is why I used it. The format I used was MP4 and H.264 (MPEG-4) compression. I used this as MP4 is a versatile format that I could use to upload it to almost any website as it is the internet standard, I did this to be able to upload it to blogger. I used this compression as it has very little quality loss while cutting down the file size a lot. This was the process of making the video for my final evaluation questions (6 and 7), including what products (E.G. software and peripherals) I used and why I used them.



In this I detail what technologies I have used. But to go more in depth, I have learnt how to use a camera in the sense that I have learn multiple things I did not know before. Such as, I have learnt how to take shutter speed into account now, and because of this I have been able to capture motion in picture, such as 'smashing' a guitar in one of the pictures. I have also learnt how to use it in relevance to lighting, as in where to take to the picture and what lights to use to make it look the best. I have also learnt how to position the 'model' in the picture, where as I did not think it mattered before. I have learnt this through the rule of thirds where I have to place the 'model' on a power point so it will be more appealing to my audience. This I did not know before. 

On my main task I have shown the process of me creating my magazine cover, double page spread, and contents page. This shows how my use of technology has been bettered. The first page I created and put on my main task is all I knew how to do, but as my technology skills (such as Photoshop and gimp) developed, so did my magazine cover, as shown through the process of making it. This was shown also on my double page spread and contents page.
