Evaluation

During unit 2 I have done print, video and audio exercises.

For my print exercise I had to design a magazine front cover. For my front cover I decided to make a game magazine which I called "Gamers Guide" the reason I chose to make this kind of magazine was because I really enjoy playing video games. I know what I like in a game so I decided to make a magazine which would show how I think a magazine should look like and what stories I would like to read. For example what kind of games are being released, along with competitions to win trips to E3 as i think this is something most people would like to get in a magazine. 

For my video I made a continuity exercise which is a video where there are cuts that do not effect the visual playback of the video. The video consisted of a walk from two different rooms in the lower school. The film consisted of 10-15 cuts, the cuts were all at different locations following the trip and each ended when the featured character walked out of the cameras view and then continued on at a different location. Another part of the corse was to make a treatment for a music video. The treatment I wrote up was for Green Days "Know Your Enemy" this involved writing out the video from start to finish. The idea I came up with was to make the video focus on major wars and victories while the band are shown playing in the middle of a battlefield.

For audio I had to make a podcast for a radio show. My radio show was called "Gamers Guide"in which I was talked about the "Halo" franchise. The reason I chose this was because it is something I knew a lot about and I thought I could give a lot of information about it. The post is only a screenshot of the garageband file because the post would not load into blogger. I will find a way to put the actual podcast into the blog.
